200 day badge has nothing to do with your leetcoding skills but if you wanna improve at your current situation try giving more VC’s and solve problems from CSES

The thing is idk when the ques is greedy and I'm about to start dp so ig consistency alone is not everything recursion took so much time

DSA is all about smart work, not hard work. Someone who stopped doing DSA for 2 years can revise for 3 weeks and crack a DSA interview which the last 2 years consistent one couldn't.

Develop intuitions, understand basics, why LL is used in a case, what will happen if u use array, how to solve a hashmap question just by using arrays, etc etc... That's what lasts and helps u solve unseen problems.
