Wow! Thank you so much :) I usually don't like videos like that because they tend to keep talking for a long time, but this one was concise and full of resources. Thanks again!

Hi Egor. Thank you very much for your videos. I'm from Colombia and I'm a beginner in the data world. I hope you keep creating content to help us become great Data Scientist (Sorry for my English, I'm learning :V).

[PasserbyP]

Hi Egor can you talk us through your first data science project like how you got the idea, mistakes your made or learned from.

And perhaps projects you would do today to really show off your skills.

Hello from Kigali, Rwanda :)
thank you for this insightful video, I am preparing for second year of my master's degree, and I have already taken some courses including Mathematics for Machine Learning, that used the book you recommended, I want to revise them plus ones you recommended for me to be ready for fall semester!

Hello from Cuba, excellent video Egor! I'm trying to land my first job and your videos are amazing, your recommendations have been very useful for me, books, tutorials, everything, thanks a lot. I wish you the best and I am sure you will soon get the verification badge from Youtube.

Great video indeed. Not sure for you, but I’ve found the laws of logic and graph theory quite fascinating tbh 🙂

Really like your videos. Quick question, Is the company the company that dictate you where to work remotely or you can work anywhere in the world ? Thanks for sharing

I'm in India and want to work in the US. How do I get a job (in the future, I'm still learning in school currently) in a good company in the US? Is it hard? Does it require lots of funds? How does it work?

Fantastic video bro! I have been a data analyst for over 2 years now, 1st class BSc in Biochem, A-level maths. Would you say I still need an MSc in maths/stem to compete with other candidates, or self teach to upskill and enter data science? Thanks again

[mousquetaire]

(Although you didn't mention them here) do you recommend the books: Introduction to Statistical Learning and Elements of Statistical Learning?

[adamnuqui]

Hi, what laptop do you use for your work? I’m getting into computer science for uni and would love to hear your input

[ΑντρέαςΣωτηρίου-πγ]

Do you suggest me to make the AI master degree and work as a data scientist or do parallel work as data scientist and do my master in data analysis ?

[rickyponting]

Hi
I am new in newyork city
I am looking to do an undergraduate degree in data science which universities you recommend which is cheaper and good for data science in nyc

I more interested in gradinet boosting ml also feature engineering dimension reduction and bigger feature extarction and the max depth =2 tree size = as less as possible and also discarding reason and correlation this can cause both over and under fit but pca is very tough for example more than 3 feature at once
