Setup Instructions

  1. Notion users: Duplicate the included template to your workspace
  2. Non-Notion users: Use the Markdown versions in src/ with any tool (Obsidian, Trello, spreadsheet)
  3. Customize the topic list for your target role (use the included role-specific presets)
  4. Set your start date and the tracker auto-calculates all milestone dates
  5. Schedule weekly reviews — set a recurring calendar reminder

Study Plan

This IS the study plan. The 90-day template covers:

Phase Weeks Focus Daily Commitment
Foundation 1-4 Core DS&A, easy/medium problems 60 min
Depth 5-8 System design, behavioral, domain skills 75 min
Polish 9-12 Hard problems, mock interviews, applications 90 min

Practice Tips

  1. Track honestly. Inflated self-ratings waste your time. If you can't solve it cold, it's not a 5/5.
  2. Review weekly, adjust monthly. Plans should adapt — if DP is your weakness, reallocate time.
  3. Quality over quantity. Understanding 3 problems deeply beats rushing through 10.
  4. Log mock interviews immediately. Memory fades fast — write feedback within 30 minutes.
  5. Celebrate milestones. The tracker includes milestone markers — acknowledge your progress.
