DSA Roadmap For Placements

The document outlines a DSA roadmap for placements, providing two plans: a 3-month intensive program and a 6-month balanced program. The 3-month plan focuses on fundamental to advanced topics with daily practice and mock interviews, while the 6-month plan gradually builds knowledge from core programming to complex structures and final preparations. Optional add-ons include competitive programming and behavioral preparation for interviews.
