Hey guys! I'm Priya and I'm here to help you get into college! My channel is going to be about all things college - especially the application process and what you need to work on to get into your dream school!
I just graduated from college myself (B.Sc. UChicago '19) and learned a lot about the nuances along the way, and I'm here to give you all of the insider tips. There are a lot of misconceptions about colleges, and I hope to give you some insight about the application process. I hope that my channel will be a positive part of your college journey!

Thanks, this is a real complete and usefull roadmap for me
Thanks for sharing true and honest information.
BIG THANKS! I'm currently looking for a job and this helps me a lot. This month, my former boss told me that they won't renew my contract, because they wont have much work to do for my profile, but they appreciate the job done and offered me a recommendation letter. This was my first job and, honestly, I'm a little in panic. I don't know what to do, my previous resume was terrible, my LinkedIn is still empty and without any contacts, so I don't know where to start. This video helped me to see how to begin with the resume If you could make more videos in the futreabout job searching, applying, etc, it would be awesome
How difficult is Data Scientist? I"m graduating later this year and am really curious about it.

Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge with us for free! The video was amazing!
VERY INSIGHTFUL!!! Tf...first time I've seen someone be so eloquently open and descriptive about their role, I'm speechless. Please keep sharing, you are doing the God's work.
This is so awesome! Your patience, attention to detail and communication style makes it feel like I am chatting with a colleague across the room to learn more about time-series. I'm now subscribed and will probably go watch all the other videos :)

Hello, where is part 3?
Private student loans is the worst debt you can have especially if you do not know that you will make a ton of money when you graduate. There is no income based repayment plan as there is with federal loans and there is no income forgiveness as there is with federal loans. It is the only debt you can never walk away from under any circumstance. I personally think parents telling their kids to go to college before they know what they want to do and letting them take private loans is the worst advice. If you take federal loans and make very stupid mistakes and get a worthless degree you can work for a non-profit or government, pay next to nothing a month if you do not make a ton of money and have the rest forgiven in 10 years. However, the really smart thing to do is get college credit in high school, go to a community college, work and pay for your last two years of school. If you want to go on and have good grades, graduate school is often free and paid for with assistantships.
Data science is getting scary for me after seeing this😅
i luv you
best video i see for prophet, thanks
You a real one for this, Thank you
The main prompt for my gratitude journal is finding this channel. Thank you for such quality content!
Hi i know im 3 years late and someone living in England, i have just picked science for my college choice because i was worried about choosing something like art and design that i like fo do for fun, but i have no idea what route i want to go down or what to study in university which is equivalent to college for you.
does the last part exist? :))
This video was so helpful...I an just starting my Data Science Journey...thank you for the guide.
Hey girl, just found your channel! Where did you go to school? I’m thinking of switching careers from interior design to data science. I’m thinking of doing 8 month boot camp, is that considered legit in the industry or the industry prefers masters or bachelors? ❤❤❤thanks!

I had to wait till age 24+ to fill out fafsa without my parents. My parents didn’t want me in college.
i’m applying early decision 2 for 2024-25 !! ⭐️⭐️
You didn’t get Fafsa and you are giving advice on Fafsa ,and I think you are suggesting the tricks which didn’t work for you .I am glade you got a huge scholarship we don’t know how but it paid your college.😮

If you're given daily sales data and the agency that makes the order per day, what would you do to predict the sales per agency for a particular day? The data I have contains over 1000 agencies.
