@@muhammadhammad9069 there are several ways to do it most easiest is to get a job in either US or Europe via some company who can outsource you to a top notch company. These companies cannot hire you directly due to law but they can hire a B2B and that third party business if willing could hire you. Other option is to work with companies like Turing or Toptal but they keep a cut around 50% or even more than that

GPA and grades mean nothing tbh, i saw students with average grades doing very well later in life and in their professions. A lot of exams at uni are basically memory related, and aren't very practical so they don't stimulate you, the people that max their grades are or people that have a lot of passion for the subject, and those are the smart ones (not many rly) or people that have excellent memory, but that mean almost nothing, no skills are developed from it.

@@AyushMaurya-ei4sv Frankly i saw them doing basically the same as the ones with average GPA, most of the time when you apply for jobs they don't even ask about your grades, at least in Europe, whats more important is your ability to do the work and previous job experiences.

True grades mean nothing, but getting good job means nothing too. You can get a job if you know people. And within a job you can get promoted if you know people. I have seen many people who are not that talented get promoted just because they know how to bs their way up. They got no talent but just bs

Well as a graduate let me tell you something. GPA is like the jack of all trade concept thing... If you have higher gpa mean you have more or less a good understanding of different concept in the discipline you choose in graduate. That doesn't mean that you have an excellent understanding in all if any of the subject. But in reality we need better understanding in one concept to apply it in real world. If you want get a Phd or a job or learning something you need to focus on one thing and only basic understanding in thinks related to what your want to focus. The problem is current education system is a fact check. It doesn't analyse you ability and depth of understanding rather just memory or a method to do it without even know what happens... There are some exceptions ofcourse

Good evening Sundas Mohammed here from Nigeria. I love your channel. Honestly your sincerity on DS issues, kept me going. I have just a course away from completing IBM Data Science prof Certificate, I just completed my Masters in Information Mngt (with a 3.4GPA) And I’m looking to combine the two to horn my DS career. I work in healthcare and right now thinking of starting a personal project in ML (I work in a hospital and have access to thousands of medical images), any personal tip on that will be appreciated. Thanks for what you do.

I graduated with a 2.9 but the craziest thing is it took me 8 years to get my bachelors degree and i ended up getting a bachelors in applied math and statistics and a minor in computer science. I didn't go to an ivy or a top 10 university and my first job out of college back in 2016 was a SE for 100k base and 20k bonus / 20k stocks.

Hi there new subscriber I am a student who has now finished high school school and wants to get into IT . I came across your page and decided to be a data analyst. I am not 100% good at math but I know the basics and information technology. I like it because it was somewhat easier than my other subjects but not 100% and I am not good when it comes to problem solving. Where can I start to learn this career choice and if possible can you show me a step by step process on what I should learn first. I don't have the expenses to pay for university and want to to be self taught
