Why LeetCode Isn’t Enough in 2025 | Fix These 3 Mistakes to Crack Interviews

In this video, I’m breaking down the 3 biggest problems with doing only Leetcode for DSA prep.

Even after solving 200 to 300 questions, many students still fail in contests and interviews. They freeze on unknown problems, struggle with debugging, and can’t write full code under pressure.

I’ll walk you through what’s going wrong and how to fix it with a better strategy. These insights are based on my own experience of guiding thousands of students for internships, coding rounds, and placements.
If you’ve ever felt stuck even after consistent practice, this video is for you.

Don’t miss the third problem, it’s something almost every student gets wrong.
