This project covers the whole process from problem statement to model development and evaluation and finally prediction on test data:

1-Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)
2-Data Pre-processing
3-Model Development and Evaluation
4-Predection

Problem Statement-

This is a classification problem where we have to predict whether a loan will be approved or not. Specifically, it is a binary classification problem where we have to predict either one of the two classes given i.e. approved (Y) or not approved (N).The dependent variable or target variable is the Loan_Status, while the rest are independent variable or features. We need to develop a model using the features to predict the target variable.

I scored accuracy of about 80.80% using RandomForestClassifier. I believe this is a nice score to begin with.
