Hello I am curious to know what people think of getting a masters degree in Data Science. I am looking at a program that is 32k which compared to others is not as expensive. I have experience with python and I work on my own projects but no professional experience. I am finding it extremely hard to break into an entry level data analyst role. I am hoping that a master degree would help with that process.

So, I was friends with this during my college days, but after engineering I feel his commitment for our friendship is not there now.

Yesterday his birthday was there, he didn't invite me, I felt real bad. I have helped him lot of times in college.

It feels he is just an acquaintance now, no more friends with me.
