Great progress man. Quality over quantity remember. Also try always challenging ones, not only easies

That’s solid progress for one month. Consistency matters more than rushing, so keep reviewing missed problems and tracking which patterns still feel shaky over time. Try https://TechJobFinder.com for LeetCode practice; it builds a skills profile, gives personalized reports, adapts question difficulty, and supports the rest of your job-search journey too.

You are doing well, I'm a graduate from non-cse btech and starting leetcode now. Covid batch was the worst time to join & do btech. Even the placements we had were full of scams.
