[@SundasKhalid]

Thanks for watching! What else would you add to the list? 👀

[@movietime4683]

Can someone pursue data analytics as an UG degree in colleges ?

[@hamzaghafoor8608]

Hey Sundas I hope you're doing alright. I wanted to refer to the point that you brought up "You don't need to become a data analyst before becoming a data scientist". I know we don't necessarily NEED TO become a data analyst to become a data scientist but since the marathon for the junior data scientist job is much more competitive; and there are much less number of entry-level data scientist jobs as compared to data analytics, isn't data analyst a good entry level job to get into the data science world? I would love to hear your remarks on this take. :))

[@kindnessbenevolent]

Can you please elaborate various roles under data science and how to study on one of them particularly?

[@sunilrskanda1588]

For Data Science enthusiasts, this is one of the best reality check videos to ensure you take care of yourself while learning and becoming a Data Scientist.

[@hithayathullah5200]

Hi Sundas, Congratulations for presenting this useful video. The suggestions are practical based on experience.

[@jahanzebali589]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR AMAZING GUIDANCE! I REALLY ADMIRE YOUR WAY OF EXPLAINING WHEN YOU REPEAT THINGS FOR EMPHASIS AND SUMMARISING, THAT'S A VERY PRO MOVE! THANKS A LOT!

[@tylerreni8466]

Really great video--subscribed! Thank you for making this path so much clearer.

[@user-de2oe7ie5s]

Love your videos! Thank you! ❤😊

[@mikexiao37]

This video is great and practical. You're a real data scientist who has been working at tech companies for many years. I'm glad you share the real experience. Keep up the great work! Thanks!

[@ola...o1009]

You helped me get over my fear of coding. The way you speak enthusiastically about it 😅

[@raghunathakonganti]

Very valuable insights. Thank you.

[@TingBie]

Brilliant! Thanks❤

[@naimamohamud7905]

thank you for nice ideas for data scienctist

[@gilbertobatres-estrada5119]

Thanks for sharing. I have a strong background in applied math, statistics and theoretical physics so that I had with me from start and built with lots of machince learning and deep learning. For that reason I might be biased towards learning to code. But I think that maybe you might need to know both skills at the start and build in parallel. For instance if you know computer science it might help you to desing algorithms when it comes to computing space and time. One nice thing with coding is that you can test machine learning algorithms from start and see the messiness of working with data. Tank you!

[@carolinaalvarez1775]

Amazin advice! I agree! Im a Sr. Data analyst. I know sql and python but not a data scientist ready yet. I need to study more xD Please make more videos on how to get the first role as Data scientist.

[@daytradingworldofficial]

Very nice analysis of current data science profile and helpful insights keep going.

[@khansaabdulghafoor1089]

Excellent video 👍

[@yuvansaiaurora1292]

Great content! It would be great if you could please share the interview process(if u experienced dsa round) at faang companies, including urs if possible

[@hassanmahamat-pz8fx]

Thanks for the video.

[@futureworldhealing]

thanks for the tips!!!

[@ArinAkaMazu]

Thank you I will remember this i will fight for you

[@SamiAlvi520]

Happy to see this topic.

[@kenjimori4771]

Hi Sundas, Thank you for creating interesting video all the time. My question is how would the so-called “Customer Insights” role be positioned relative to data scientist or data analyst etc in your role classification world? Just curious to know what you’d think.

[@isalutfi]

*Hi Sundas. Glad to see the notification. I enjoy the video and hopefully it will be helpful to me. Thank you for sharing about 10 learning mistakes that we data scientist must avoid. Keep great topic up! 💻🥪🍵*

[@krrishshylock6984]

Hi Sundas , Can you please advice me do i need to become data analyst before going in to the data engineer . if not please advice me what to do ?

[@vishalkumar-rq3qo]

Could you make a video for prompt engineer? How it’s related to data science?

[@GMCXI]

Love your videos! I would like to ask do I need to study a degree in data science to get into this field?

[@naniktriw3862]

thank you!

[@getstartedwithmadhuri]

Hi Sundas,Can you please tell me what is the the total compensation for Cloud AI Engineer in Google?

[@adithvas3586]

Well I am just going to finish my 12 in india PCM in india and stormed through various jobs and it picked my interest.So my maths is 80% strong.I want to work in a company and reach a okay position and learn business stuff and start up a company Please guide me and what to do

[@bashiircabdi350]

thank you

[@susan12242001]

I don't have data science or computer science background. Can I still get a job as data scientist? I saw many companies put related degree as one of a requirement...

[@nikhilmuthukrishnan7222]

Moving beyond regression? could be misleading no? might lead to shallow learning?

[@webmestermu]

Thanks of this valueable video! But number 8 mistake is missing - so edit the title 10 to 9 as numerical correct ;)

[@astatine0085]

yes, it's so easy to lose the skillsets. which is why employers prefer employed folks.

[@hunupitiyaamemes8803]

im basically a software engineer, but undergraduate, i want to become a data scientist, i have a idea to do a bachlor degree in data science, waht is the good sources for self study?

[@VAIBHAVMALHOTRA19]

Can you make a video about same topic but in Data Analytics

[@user-xk3ot7dy3s]

Dear Sundas I have been watching you for a long time, I research a lot and now decided to become a data scientist. But I don't have a tech background so is that suitable for me and Do I have to get a degree in it? By the way enjoy your videos.

[@Muhammad.farooq6007]

you said data analyst and data scientists are two different things but the problem is mostly jobs of data science want Masters degree in data science, so for a graduate student of (CS) is it not worth that he do data analyst job till his Masters degree completion????

[@yashpreetkalra2649]

Hello Mam, I hope you are doing good! I need your guidance in choosing my career. Actually, I am an international student at Deakin University Melbourne Australia. I am doing a bachelor of computer science here majoring in data science. I don't have a previous maths background as I did my 11th and 12th in Commerce. So I wanted to that what kind of maths is required to become or step into the field of data science. I am following your KZbin channel and you posted the video for the same topic. But then I also I am bit confused. So can you please guide me with this.

[@SatishPatil-nm1fw]

Hi Sundas, I can see you didn't replied to most comments still asking. I work as Business Analyst in software firm & looking for opportunity with Google. Do you have any suggestions in it.

[@iheartsfgiants]

About not being a data analyst before data scientist: no is hiring young data scientist / junior data scientist. I have a lot of data scientist and ml coursework and some experience and I haven’t heard a single phone call in two years of applying :-(

[@radxpro2268]

I watch your videos, can you make a video on data engineer road map

[@anandshaw-ie3qk]

Can you make a portfolio for data scientist

[@Mwalimu-wa-Math]

Already am in my final year in a degree of statistics. Am interested in field data science They thought us R as statistical software. I also took a short certificate on advanced excel, spss and stata. Currently am taking python for data analysis from coursera also I do watch different KZbin videos. Sometimes I learnt many things and I don't when and we're to apply😂 Plz any advice

[@amrapalisamanta5085]

Are Data Structure Leetcode questions asked in Coding(Python) for data Science roles? Or should we focus only on data manipulation i.e. numpy, pandas etc.

[@diveIntoAnalytics]

Well I am fit to ans this que since I myself work as a Data Analyst. Data structures are not very relevant for fresher level jobs but some companies do put up a machine round of DSA to cut competition. But if you are a beginner...I would suggest you to focus mainly on numpy, pandas and matplotlib.

[@jubairlead]

hello , you gain a new regular viewer .

[@SundasKhalid]

Welcome!

[@humanbeing5348]

I am a final-year student pursuing information technology at a Tier-3 college. My aim is to be a data scientist. After watching so many roadmap videos, I found yours explaining the core skills required. Python wasn't one of my subjects, and I didn't have anyone to guide me in learning coding languages apart from my syllabus. I am going to pursue my master's degree abroad; the class starts in the month of July. I am still lacking confidence in what to learn. Will I be able to stand out in the crowd? I request experts as well as the creator to help me learn the appropriate skills that are required to be learned before the class starts so that I can cope and also learn and be confident. Please comment.

[@chiragprajapathi3442]

Well sir I don't have any answers for you but I have a question.. I'm from India, just passed 12th standard and now going for my 1 St yr in college and I need a guidance on whether I persue Bsc(statistics) in Data Science or to go for the IT and then Data science..?? I will appreciate your explanation sir..

[@IMDABROWN]

Nope got to this video cause I enjoy your content.

[@SundasKhalid]

Glad you got to this video!

[@sunnyahmed5935]

is data science job shrinking ?

[@silver7719]

I'm 44 and want to switch from finance to data science, as a first step I think of getting a master degree in data science...do you think there is still place for people like me?

[@rfii1178]

Can i start to learn first data science & machine learning then go to the data analysis ?

[@SundasKhalid]

Depends what your end goal is? do you want to become a data analyst or data scientist?

[@abdullahrizwan668]

I'm a python developer if today I kick start my career as python based backend engineer will I be able to navigate to data sciences and then ML or should I stay back and learn about data sciences and start my career as DS ?

[@SundasKhalid]

If you are passionate about a career as a data scientist, then why not go for it and try it out. That’s the only way to find out.

[@Naturelover_24518]

hello mam, I'm from India can you please the system requirements for laptop for data science?

[@mohamedfarhan3858]

Depends on type of software u run

[@mirthipatimanikanta8664]

Madam iam a career gap person Service now or data analyst which one I choose please 🙏 suggest me madam service now has a future scope tell me madam

[@sathviksathish4243]

I am stuck in tutorial hill 😔

But I need a job first, help me to get

[@palepoint7092]

Stight up mistake , I haven't watched a single video about data science , I opend a video but jumped into this , so no your prediction in the beginning of the video is mistaken

[@kevdo6333]

Hey

[@BlendTubeMix]

I have few questions for you 1- company like google want master in data science? I am bca student and have relevant courses and skill to the data science is it ok with them? 2- as a online learner all the topic related to data science like nlp, deep learning are separated due to different online resources so where I can learn them. 3- I can't learn all because I am full time colledge student so what's are the mandatory topic nad tool that I have to learn

[@user-xk3ot7dy3s]

Dear Sundas I have been watching you for a long time, I research a lot and now decided to brcome a data scientist. But I don't have a tech background so is that suitable for me and Do I have to get a degree in it?

[@diveIntoAnalytics]

No definitely not..I myself is a Maths graduate transitioned to Data Analytics. A purely self taught person.

[@Angelinajolieshorts]

I am here after watching Codanics channel.

[@ashutoshtripathi-rx3hs]
