Finally stopped grinding random LeetCode problems and started doing the same 20 problems on a two week cycle, recall got so much better
#consistency#dsa#learning
Was doing the classic thing of solving a new problem every day, feeling good in the moment, then blanking on something nearly identical two weeks later. Switched to picking 20 problems across core patterns and just cycling through them every two weeks instead of chasing novelty. Third pass through, I noticed I wasn't re-deriving the approach anymore, I actually remembered it. Slower to feel like progress at first, but it's the only method that's actually stuck.

AnonymousAnon What's on your list of 20? Trying to figure out my own core set right now.

AnonymousAnon The cycling approach is basically spaced repetition and it's wild how much of DSA prep ignores that in favor of just doing more problems. Might steal this.
