Thank you all so much for 1k+ subs! What kind of video should I make next? 🤔

[@WalkInsider]

wow

[@gamefever6055]

you are doing great . just upload regularly. we want to see you more. i know it is hard when you are buzy. btw who was in the room with you

A game day of some sport event or concert @ the Greek.

I suffered through my undergrad at Berkeley, but it did change my attitude to put out 130% effort so I don't regret I could have done better. Keep up the hard work :)

[@dertfert745]

I miss having this much confidence and fun! Don't do a data science PhD at a top business school kids! Just make money and have a good time

[@damijares7632]

why not? lol

[@ethankwan1694]

what's bad about data science phd at a top business school?

[@jamesmachado8874]

Thanks for the tour. Berkeley has changed since my day back in 1979. Computers filled an entire room, we filed for our classes on punch cards, there was no Haas building and we were on the quarter system.. It is good to know as a physics major that LeConte Hall still looks the same. GO BEARS!

[@dogmania2892]

This is such a cool look into the life of an actual student. Growing up in the bay area, berkeley has been my dream school forever, and i even volunteer at the lawrence hall of science. Good video :D

[@PeterPan-xe7qw]

I remember watching your Asana Intern Video and realized it was you here from your really distinct and interesting editing! I'm sure you'll be popular (even more so that is) in no time. I'm excited to finally apply some of the topics covered in your videos as I'm starting my Undergrad research soon! Exciting times.

[@edreaa]

Thank you so much, that really made my day! 🥺 good luck with research 😊

[@yc333]

just came across your channel, and I love the confidence, content and humour so much. :)

The editing and quality of the video is dope! keep going 👍

[@edreaa]

Thanks so much :')

[@turki12394]

Wow! Now I’m even more excited to major in data science! I’m applying to colleges in the US this year as an international student. Thank you for the insightful video. If I can ask also, what has been your favorite data science course?

[@edreaa]

Thanks for watching! I don't really have a particular favorite, but Data 100 (Principles & Techniques of DS) was really enjoyable and gave me exposure to topics like advanced SQL, machine learning, probability, etc - it really helped during interviews :)

We kinda have the same vibe and the materials sound sooo interesting i guess im more convinced to do data science

[@joeyp1927]

Looked up My Coffee Roastery! What a cute hamlet, but quite a ways from campus especially if you're late for class--I used to live on MLK Way but farther down. Yes, it does have Harry Potter vibes and also feels a bit like Northside. Gotta check it out the next time I'm over there!

[@CynthiaHauu]

[@galaxygkm4696]

is this major worth it? I’m still in highschool and mine currently offers data science as an elective but I’m not sure atm

[@edreaa]

I’d say it is! Data science has opened a lot of doors for me and is applicable to every field. Even if you don’t end up ultimately pursuing a major/career in DS, I highly recommend you go for that elective to see if you like it!

This was def a mood booster during dead week! Loved the video and look forward to finally moving outta these berk dorms! #datascience_majors_rule
