As a data scientist myself, I agree that anyone can become a data scientist. It definitely takes a significant amount of time and effort though. I have multiple videos about how to get into the field on my channel for those who are interested!

'anyone can be a data scientist' - that's the gist of this lecture.....What it requires is a combo of math stats n computer science skills topped u with communication and management soft skills.....Data is the new thing from which physicists, engineers, social scientists can draw n infer conclusions based on past history or some kind of logic.......And this is the best time ever for fast processing of loads of data........Right time to be data scientist! You can work in any domain! Good introductory talk👍

You don't need a computer science, data science or statistics degree to become a data scientist. My Country: This does not apply to you.
