Graduate-Admission-Data-Analysis

Description

My analysis will help you in understand what factors are important in graduate admissions and how these factors are interrelated among themselves. It will also help predict one's chances of admission given the rest of the variables.(Data source from Kaggle.com)

Context

This dataset is created for prediction of Graduate Admissions from an Indian perspective.

Content

The dataset contains several parameters which are considered important during the application for Masters Programs. The parameters included are :

1.GRE Scores ( out of 340 ) 2.TOEFL Scores ( out of 120 ) 3.University Rating ( out of 5 ) 4.Statement of Purpose and Letter of Recommendation Strength ( out of 5 ) 5.Undergraduate GPA ( out of 10 ) 6.Research Experience ( either 0 or 1 ) 7.Chance of Admit ( ranging from 0 to 1 )
