Hi friends, I would recommend to go through all topics mentioned on tutorials on site topcoder for google.Make a note, do practise more of greedy and dynamic programming questions.In final rounds of interview, they generally ask questions involving probability along with computation which is also covered in topcoder. Best of luck.
