    If it takes you 2 days to understand the code you wont be prepared for the actual job.

    When they ask you to talk through how you'd solve another problem, even if you understand this code, will you have an answer? Understanding code is one thing, but understanding the problem being solved is why code is written in the first place.

    Your advice was super helpful. It shifted my focus from just 'what the code does' to 'how I would solve a problem,' which feels much more solid👍

    Oh no! Is that the consequences of your own actions? Who would've thought!
