I'm a final year student(CSE) at Indira Gandhi Delhi Technical University for Women. I enrolled for the Foundation course at PepCoding in February 2019 and I loved the course so much that I enrolled for Interview Prep as well. These courses have helped me build my basics of Data Structure and Algorithm. It was only after joining PepCoding that I started competitive coding and now I'm successfully placed at Goibibo. The study material and weekly class tests are incredible, taking these tests really makes one realize where to focus more. Here's why you should join PepCoding :
1. The Foundation course at PepCoding focuses on the most important concepts of Data Structure and Algorithm like, Recursion(it is their strongest point), Linked List, Stack and Queue, Dynamic Programming, Graphs, Trees, Range Queries, Bit Manipulation, OOP.
2. Their question bank has frequently asked interview questions by tech giants. Enrolling for Interview Prep at PepCoding means you'll be solving more than 600 questions in 2 months which are asked in the interviews. These many questions are more than enough to get you placed anywhere you want, all it takes is practice.
3. Weekly tests on Hackerrank. They will help you to analyze your weak and strong points so you can work on them as required.
4. Students are provided with the videos of lectures (along with the class codes) on their portal so you can revisit any class any time.
5. There will always be TAs in the class to assist you if you get stuck anywhere during the lectures.
6. You can revise your course again in a parallel ongoing batch or a new batch when it starts.
If you're in PepCoding, you're in good hands.
Myself being a student of PEPCODING's foundation batch and interview preparation batch has experienced some great teaching and a wonderfully amazing coding environment and ultimately i cracked the intership offer from Microsoft IDC.
Step up and be a part of family of winners.

When it comes to the preparation there are vast range of topics that are needed to be covered adequately, so one must have a proper line of sight to lean on, since the time is too less and the things to be covered are alot.
Myself being a student of PEPCODING's foundation batch and interview preparation batch has experienced some great teaching and a wonderfully amazing coding environment and ultimately i cracked the intership offer from Microsoft IDC.
There can be 2 scenerios for the students-
1. A complete newbie in programming.
- such students should definitely go for PepCoding's foundation course where you start from zero and reach a certain level where you know and have some sort of expertise on everything that is needed to be done.
2. one with enough confidence on data structures and has done basic primary questions on each data stucture and knows some basic but important algorithm (and here i'm not definitely talking about algos like binary search but algorithms like Kosaraju, bellman ford etc).
The rest of the answer is same for students that comes under the 2 category and the students that were intially under the 1 category but now has risen up there level..
* After that go for the interview prepation batch that makes sure that the student has solved atleast 100+ problems on each and every topic focusing specially on topics that sort of haunt the programmers like Dynammic programming, Graphs, Trees with dynamic programming, Dp with Bit masking.
* This makes sure that the students have an edge in the competition that boosts up your moral.
* Apart form ds and algo this batch focuses on other important factors that may affect your selection like OOPS, OPERATING SYSTEMS, DBMS, NETWORKING etc.
* if these things aren't enough one can simply look at the results that this batch of PepCoding delivers.Best place to learn programming in Delhi-NCR follow up the link to see the magic that PepCoding has already created.
After knowing all this things are quite evident, the journey of becoming the best begins by preparing like the best and for that PEPCODING is always with you helping you in achieving your dreams.

Pepcoding is the result of blood, sweat and tears of Mr Sumeet Malik who is the most amazing teacher, mentor, friend and elder brother all combined in one. He is the reason behind the success of hundreds of students. I look upto him. He has taught me a lot more than just coding. He is a role model.

All other instutes have made this a business. I have also done a course at coding ninjas. It was more expensive and the quality was not even 10% of what is provided here. All topics weren't even covered.

Various students who were not able to get into top tier colleges get depressed thinking about the future. The same was my case before joining Pepcoding. I used to worry a lot and was unable to sleep at night thinking what I will do in life. But all of it changed after meeting Sumeet sir and attending classes. He showed me what I was capable of. He made me realise my potential and believed in me even when I didn't believe in myself. He always pushed me to do more and do better. Now I am placed in the best company that visits my campus without even breaking a sweat and I am ready to take on tech giants in off-campus recruitment with confidence. None of this was possible without Pepcoding and Sumeet sir.
I still remember the day I understood what made Pepcoding so successful in such a short period of time. Even after doing all of the above, spending hundreds of hours in class teaching with full energy and passion, Sumeet sir said this to all the students present “If even any one of you (students) feel dissatisfied or cheated by me or the quality or quantity of content in class, I encourage them to come to me for a refund”. He said this when half of the students hadn't paid the fees and he was bleeding money to open a new centre. That day I understood how money didn't matter to him. It was all passion that made him teach tirelessly 12–16 hours a day without caring for his food, health or sleep.
I couldn't recommend Pepcoding more. I can vouch for customer satisfaction there. I have already recommended it to many.
The reason why I chose PepCoding was because I had heard of Sumeet Sir’s exceptional methodology of teaching. And none of it I heard was not true. The patience shown by Sir in his teaching was displayed by all the other faculties and teaching assistants at PepCoding

Starting with Foundation course, I can undoubtedly say that it is the best course for beginners in the market. I did not have any prior knowledge of coding and data structures from my school days, so I was a complete beginner. The course was designed to have 50 classes focussed on all the data structures and related topics – Arrays, Strings, DP, Hashmaps, Trees, Heaps, Graphs, OOPS etc. After completion of this course, we were able to understand and code about 250+ questions itself which were of basic and intermediate level. The content covered in the Foundation course itself is unmatched.
As soon as my Foundation course got over, I got myself enrolled into the Interview Preparation course during the summers, after the second year. It is the best time to prepare for interviews. There are so many resources available for interview preparation online such as InterviewBit, Leetcode, GeeksForGeeks , Codechef etc. But it gets very confusing as the selection of questions from these vast resources is a difficult part and it is impossible to cover each and every resource. PepCoding’s team, however, makes this impossible task possible for you by curating a list of important questions from all these resources so that students can feel comfortable in all levels of questions. In a time span of 2 months, we were able to complete 500+ questions apart from those covered in Foundation course.
The faculties were available online as well as offline for doubt sessions. The individual attention and patience shown by the faculties at PepCoding is another driving factor of this institution. The learning environment in class is very interactive which makes learning better and easier, and helps students in discussing their approach with the entire class or asking doubts without a pinch of hesitation. One can take as many doubt sessions as required and will always be welcomed to the institute.
At last, I would like to share that I had received internship offer from Microsoft and the entire credit goes to the entire PepCoding team and their efforts. So, if you ask me how fruitful are these courses at PepCoding for acing placement and internship offers from prestigious tech giants, then I would say PepCoding is the best for it !
I would call the Interview Preparation course of Pepcoding a game changer if you aspire to get an internship/placement in a tech giant. Since I have done this course myself, I know about the quality content provided at Pepcoding. I would recommend this course to every student who wants to polish his/her coding skills to the core.

Let's talk about the course structure first. The course covers the main topics which are asked in the interviewes and are necessary to clear coding rounds. These include arrays, hashmaps, DP, stacks and queues, linked lists, graphs, operating systems, oops, system design and some miscellaneous topics. After covering each topic (which means 150 to 200 questions on an average) a coding contest is organised so that students can check their performance in the test environment. These tests help to find the areas which need improvement.
Now, I'll talk about the environment of classes conducted. The best part of these classes is the way of teaching. The concepts are taught in such a way that they become very easy to grasp. The teacher also makes sure that everyone understands the concept before moving on to the next question. The class is very interactive as students can ask doubts and explain their way of approaching the question. Many times, this discussion helps the class to move to a more optimised solution. Each day, at least 20 questions are discussed in the class which can be coded on the portal provided on pepcoding.com
Now, what are the prerequisites to join this course? I would say that a will to learn is enough. An advice would be to complete the assigned questions on the day they are given so that you don't create a backlog. Rest will be handled by the teaching masters at Pepcoding :D
The results of this course should be enough to explain why it is such a big hit. As for me, I got placed in the first company which visited our college, Goldman Sachs. I will say it was because this course prepared me for day 1 of the placement season. I also managed to crack a 6 month internship at Amazon because of this. For the students who got a chance to be interviewed at Google or the students who missed this course because they were interning somewhere, Sumeet sir held revision classes from 8am to 8pm. This can explain that teaching is not considered a business at Pepcoding. 2 students who ultimately got placed in Google from my college are both from Pepcoding. For my college, the same is the case with placements in Uber, Microsoft, and other companies. The number of placements from Pepcoding far better in comparison to any other coding institution. The results speak for themselves.
What works with this course is that by the end of the course duration, you would have coded more than 600 working solutions to various coding problems. This course will certainly help in polishing your coding skills. Moreover Sumeet sir and the TAs will always be there to guide you. Hence this course is definitely worth it.

PepCoding is an amazing institution where one can gather in-depth knowledge of data structures, algorithms and other technical subjects in a really interesting and fun manner. I wasn't confident about my programming skills and didn't possess much technical knowledge and so I decided to join Pepcoding. It proved to be a great decision as I was blessed enough to be guided by Sumeet Malik sir at every step of the journey.

Difficult and tricky topics like graphs and Dynamic programming were discussed in detail and sir used to spend a lot of time on them. We coded a wide range of problems for these topics specifically. Several doubt clearing sessions were organised for us apart from our classes. I really had an amazing experience at pepcoding and I'd recommend this institute to everyone! Btw, I’m placed at Walmart Labs .
The decision of choosing Pepcoding really proved to be a good choice. At pep Coding I really fell in love with data structures and algorithms. The curriculum is purely based on application rather than rote learning. Everyday we learned about a new concept starting from basics like array, stacks, queues and then goes till advance topics like graphs, trees, trie etc. The thing I admire most about PepCoding is each topic is given ample amount of time and explained clearly enough that you start to get the hang of it quite early (Trust me it's really an achievement).

I feel that I am the right person to answer this question. Here, I would assume that you are just like me still in 2nd or 3rd year of college and confused about placements/internships. I was in 2nd year when i got to know about PepCoding from one of my friends. She was an average student till first year but after summer holidays she was able to solve my doubts quite easily. I was amazed to see that much improvement in her in just 3 months. All credit goes to Pepcoding.

Next we move on to question, We all know that coding is like maths the more you practice the more you get better at it. Pepcoding has an exclusive set of questions ranging from beginners to advance level.
The culture at Pepcoding is quite dynamic, all credit goes to the teaching staff of PEP coding.
If you are stuck at any question they’ll try to help you by explaining over and over again. If you have doubt outside the class don’t worry, they have able TA’s to help you. Trust me on this they are quite awesome. I joined Younified taken by Rajneesh. I can surely say that he was really good at it. He was so friendly and supportive always. Initially I had some difficulties understanding the basics and I used to ask really silly doubts over and over again but he was really patient while explaining them. He really makes the topic easy and interesting. He has a vast knowledge about Data Structures and algorithms. I till now haven’t found any question that he doesn’t have an answer to. He really knows this subject in and out. In the end i would say in his class “There is no such thing as a dumb question.”
Now, I can really say that Pepcoding and him, surely played a vital role in getting an internship offer from amazon.
There are various institutions around teaching coding, Java, Data structures, Algorithms etc. For me Pepcoding stands out as the best place for anyone, be it a beginner or a pro if you are actually in pursuit of achieving excellence in programming.

There are various institutions around teaching coding, Java, Data structures, Algorithms etc. For me Pepcoding stands out as the best place for anyone, be it a beginner or a pro if you are actually in pursuit of achieving excellence in programming. There are various reasons why I say so:
- First and foremost Sumeet Sir. He is the best teacher/mentor/guide/guru I could have asked for. I have never seen a more dedicated teacher who thrives to teach programming in the best possible way he can. He is always trying to learn new topic, new tricks just to explain concepts better to his students.
- If anyone is familiar to the book Introduction to Algorithms(CLRS), the courses here are pretty similar. The course starts off pretty slow and simple but by the time you reach the end, you have learnt a lotttt(and by a lot i literally mean much more than just the basics) .
- The support provided during and after class is simply unmatched. Doubts being resolved on call,on whatsapp, on teamviewer, incentre and maybe I’m missing some other mode too.
- Haven’t seen another institute where weak students are allowed to and even pushed to solve problems in centre on weekdays in guidance of TAs.
I am from a Tier 3 college and this summer I have a SDE internship with Microsoft IDC. All thanks to Sumeet sir and Pepcoding for guiding me through and helping me achieve something this big.
Pepcoding is the finest institute that I’ve encountered so far when it comes to coding. What makes Pepcoding different from the other institutes available is the dedication, hard work and the course structure they offer. I don’t think any other institute would provide 50+ classes in one course. If you are willing to learn, then I believe PepCoding is the right place for you.

Pepcoding is the finest institute that I’ve encountered so far when it comes to coding.
I had already studied Data Structures and Algorithms earlier at college but was unable to gain the confidence that I needed. I came to know about Sumeet Sir in November 2017 and seeked his guidance. I joined the foundation batch taught by him in December 2018 at PepCoding and the whole journey of learning and improving my programming skills have been amazing since then. The main reason I wanted to do this course was to gain the knowledge of small points that I miss out while studying and to practice, and was greatly satisfied at the end of the course.
His way of teaching is simply amazing. He makes sure that we do the question discussed in the class then and there, and verifies it himself leaving no scope for procrastination. Moreover, many possible approaches of solving a particular question were discussed in the class, and the students brainstormed which one is the best and why(this is important). I was able to understand topics like Recursion, DP and Graphs (something that I was always afraid of) all because of his unique way of teaching.
He believes that practice is the key to success and thus wants each of his students to practice as many questions as they can. I mean we had 200 good questions on the Hackerrank portal and approx 100 questions discussed in the class! That is a huge amount of questions.
Sumeet Sir has been an amazing mentor. He’s always available to help you out, guide you. He is one of the most hardworking, knowledgeable and resourceful teacher that I’ve encountered so far.
What makes Pepcoding different from the other institutes available is the dedication, hard work and the course structure they offer. I don’t think any other institute would provide 50+ classes in one course. If you are willing to learn, then I believe PepCoding is the right place for you.
