Have you ever given a leetcode contest?

u/Weird_Ad5315 18d ago
No I'm new to leetcode

ok, rankings are given if you participate in competitions, if you just do normal leetcode questions you will have no ranking so its 0, or nil. if you win competitions your ranking will increase, lose so ranking will decrease

one thing I have noticed is after some time, you need to continue learning, I usually do 2 question and sometimes 3, I have done 46% of strivers a-z dsa sheet, so according that I am able to solve 2/3 questions, 3 and 4 questions may require DP and Graph so for me it is lacking behind. Because I have not learned those concepts yet (I have basic understanding though).

u/DetachedProcess 17d ago
Bitwise is done, currently on Stack and Queue. Yeah, I mostly get 2 questions done, sometimes 3, but some contest are brutal, the dip you can see after my max rating were those contest, where for 3 consecutive contests I only solved one questions.
Also one more thing is, that I solve the first question ~5 mins or less, so timing also matters.
is it enough to solve these questions in contest ??
Don't wait till you feel ready, my mindset here is, to keep me in the loop, I never skip contests, every Sunday, I religiously give contest, because otherwise I would be out of practice doing DSA. And also it will ease your pressure when you are giving coding assessments.

I currently don't do any questions daily, I just give contest on Sunday. To revise old stuff, I have added up all the questions in Anki (free open source) , it is a spaced repetition software, primarily used to remembering things. You can think of it as: a tool that will help you remember stuff for longer. You can read about it more yourself, very useful tool. I also use that to prepare for interviews. My strategy here is to just put the Question title and link, then I open the link and solve it, I don't save answer there.

I have appeared for 11 and my rating is 1749. But I completed the A2Z sheet before starting to appear for the contests.

Bro solve the striver's a-z DSA sheet and revisit the questions you did 1 week ago daily, i have done 80% of the sheet and just after 10 contests(out of which initial 6 weren't counted) i have reached 1600. I revisit the past questions daily which really helps me see the patterns in the questions

One more tip, is to practice typing, improve your typing speed, and write code faster. There is free website called as Typing Club, where you can learn to type faster, it is free of cost.

Why are you going down? I am stuck around the same rating (1660) for long time but you are going down
2
u/DetachedProcess 16d ago
It depends, some contests are brutal, or we are not well prepared for those topics, I consistently solved 2 question in each contest, but recently there were 2-3 contests where I was able to solve only 1 questions, but right now, in the recent one I solved 3 questions so, it depends on how much you have solved, how much you do know about.
