    The best part is the way you explain and make everything look so easily achievable, by putting in effort only. I really like that captain cool kinda vibes. I'm in my final year and have been learning ds and stuff for quite some time now. I'm sure I'll be able to crack something good like you, sir.

    I’ve been struggling memorizing all the concepts. I’ve been doing leetcode questions but it feels kind of pointless because the questions are worded so odd. I got the book and thinking about reading it and taking notes and then maybe doing more leetcode problems. I do like GFG because they give good problems to solve. I was taught front end and back end concepts in my boot camp but never taught the basics which is hard to master.

      Mostly DSA only. In some rare cases, an interviewer might ask you some lighter design problem - just asking for class diagrams.
      But you can expect a problem system design question even if yoou have 6 months experience.
