Who the 1500 rated sheet is for
1500 on Codeforces is Specialist level. Specialists who solve Div. 2 C in most contests and want D within reach.
What these problems lean on: DP, Graphs (BFS/DFS), Constructive, Sorting with custom order, Modular arithmetic.
The usual wall at 1500: Graphs and trees appear as the core of the problem, not decoration, and constructive problems need a real argument for why the construction works.
How to practise it: Get BFS, DFS and a DSU template to the point where you write them without thinking, so contest time goes on the modelling rather than the code.

Frequently asked
What should I learn before the 1500 sheet?
BFS/DFS, basic DP, modular arithmetic and fast exponentiation. Everything else in the sheet builds on those.
