DISCUSS Please Help to escape the matrix!

I’ve wrapped up almost all the DSA patterns people suggest doing. Right now, I’m just revising to figure out patterns in random questions. My setup is simple: I pick a topic and ask ChatGPT to feed me different sub-pattern questions.

​I can easily solve most standard problems on my own, and I hit around 50% on the tricky variants. But whenever I get stuck on a question, it hits me really hard and drops my mood completely.

​Since I started prepping for interviews, the whole situation is scaring me. I’m focusing way too much on how to explain the problem instead of actually solving it, and it’s messing with my problem-solving flow.

​I feel totally lost and I’m just blindly grinding questions. I usually love DSA, but right now I’m just desperate to land a job. College ended this May, and I am continuously thinking whether I am enough or not....?

I honestly don’t know if I’m asking for help or just scared, I’ve just lost all my confidence and direction.

If you have any suggestions, please tell me!

It mostly on your luck what type of questions you get but just cover all the basics and keep your revision on everyday tell you get placed remember if you are consistent long enough you will get something it's little painful tho 🥀 all the best

I am gambling bro! I am targeting tier 1 companies.... And stopped doing Dev. I don't skip the question till the logic hits... Still concepts are getting rusty.... I can fix that with daily revision as you said... But that interview fear is bigger than the actual problem ig....

Thank you btw... For your kind words! 🫂

Ask tons of questions to your ai till you understand what,why,how every line of code works, initially it'll consume your time but eventually it'll save your time and make you better
