I studied hard in the Spring and got a new job. Going to continue studying casually for the next search in 2-3 years

Hello fellow builder! I did LC since Jan this year and finally landed a job. Wish you all the best!

Been studying for 3 months so far (15-25 hours a week). Still don’t feel ready. As far as remaining prep goes, I’m going to work through about 70 more LC hard/medium, and then 10-20 paid mock interviews. Hoping that I can start interviewing with practice companies around late August/September.

How many problems have you done in 3 months?

Does anybody else feel the need for an IDE? Leetcode is not that informative when it comes to errors. If u use an IDE, whats the preferred one for C++?

You can write your code on your local ide, then copy the code over. LC has sample test cases which you can run (although they suck).

Don’t use any IDEs unless you really have to like verifying your code which doesn’t exist on leetcode etc. For cpp I like visual studio code, vim or emacs are great if you into them. For interviews you need to know the APIs hence no IDE usage is the best.
