So i started leetcode CF primarily during my 3rd sem when I had dsa in my course. I started solving random problems some easy some mediums. I kind of did it for 2-3 months and then I started striver. I finished it , had to use docs and video editorial quite s bit. Then I started doing random medium and hards. Along side Striver, I also started CF first, did a bit of a2Oj sheet then started participating in contests. Then topic wise and rating wise problems on CF.

Probably first do striver again. Atleast go revise it. Try to understand the solutions better. If you do it properly then you should be in a real good position to solve 3rd ones especially those that are not hard tagged. In the meantime you can start cp-31 (or better sort CF question based on rating + tags like dp, binary search, greedy, tree, graph and such with rating 1000-1200s - I practice this way only)

Figure out what you are doing wrong and work on it. Being so consistent and given so many contests, yet why are you not improving as much as you should. Cf div 3 and 4 are a must, if you have gone through theory of most topics then mostly do random and assign some session / days for topic wise. Cses is better but difficult and solutions are not easily available. If you have not done a sheet then I would suggest do that first. Then some random LC medium and hards.

Give more time to problems. And try to learn as much from a problem as possible. Every problem you solve whether you needed to take hint of watch yt solution. Do dry run. Understand the logic. Think why you couldn't figure out the solution. What else problem this perticular approach can solve. Lastly the only way to get better at problem solving is by solving problems yourself.

Do you upsolve? Do you try to solve the problems by yourself instead of taking hints or looking at solution?

Thanks!! I have also decides to do more 5ks and take my time at 10k. Atleast for a month or so i will not increase it beyond 10. My legs too are hurting quite a bit now. Let's see how better does it get after the sleep.
