Guideline: Make account on a2oj with the same username as on codeforces. Join Ladders. If you are a beginner, start with Ladder A.
InterviewBit and LeetCode are best resource for 3rd year students, as mentioned in the last session.
Meanwhile, programmers using C should shift to C++. Those, who are using Java, should keep using it. Python programmers can shift to either of the options. But in my opinion, you should go with C++
