Hii everyone it’s been a tough decision choosing the career path in IT Field because lot of area we need to care choosing one field.

irst i decided to go as SWE but i don’t know why ,i interested in that but i’m crazy in Data Science so ..

1. What I Decided for my Career Path?

Finally i made my decision towards data science after a tons of confessions

But i am not good in math , i really really hate math , i don’t do simple addition /subtraction itself but the data science pushes me very dirty and hardest way in learning that’s what i need.

Before making my decision towards data science i created a personal project called “Flipkart Shopping Assistant” in May 2019 that experience is very interesting which contains Neural Network , NLP , Web Scrapping , Data Visualization , DrQA , Firebase. this project allowed me to step inside the data science if i know the techniques i may finished the project in the way i thought but i’m not that much good in Math and Data Science so i used DrQA in it.

2. How I Planed for Learning ?

In July i planning of starting the Learning Process but where to start , what to start , how to start i don’t know anything about math , but i have Some programming , Pandas , Data Visualization , PyTorch Experience. I said to myself of let me start in Math but where Coursera , Udacity , Udemy , edx , youtube or in khan academy after that i realized ok KhanAcademy is my choice but what math course did i need to start first i need to love math right so i thought ok let me start from Statistics because Data Analytics is Statistics and i said ok let me 1st finish stat next to Python , pandas after that Linear Algebra and Numpy after that Calculus and Machine Learning after that NLP , CV etc...

3 . What next After Planing ?

I am Learning Stats in Khan Academy which covers Almost everthing but as of now i learned Data Visualization , Handling Missing Data , Question Asking about data , simple linear regression , R-Square now learning Probability which is a chapter-5 (i think so) in that subject. Still 4 -5 Chapter to Learn like distribution , hypothesis testing , chi-square test etc.

4. Next Post?

Whenever i finish a Subject i’ll write Blog Post about that particular Lesson and how you can learn it , where to learn it.
