Hello everyone - Ashish

Started this course today. any pointers on what could i do to take best advantage of this course ?

Hey @ashish_p, That’s amazing you have started this course. This is an interesting topic to learn, seriously. I just finished the course yesterday and it was quite a learning. You should focus on how we are integrating Sql in python and view it as just like we’re working with a DataFrame. Besides, I encourage you to focus on key concepts like Database schema , Database modeling, foreign key, composite key concepts because these are very essential topics when it comes to Database Systems. You can google this stuff cause I believe this things are not covered in depth in this course. If you get a good grasp of these things, I’m sure you’ll be able to tackle any problem when it comes to the Database domain.
Happy Leaning!

Thank you appreciate your help. i will surely keep these points in mind while digging deeper on topics.

Hello @ashish_p!

If you’re new to Data Analytics, I suggest following along with all the lessons, reading the materials and extra labs as proposed in the course. Once you finish this course, you will have a good foundation of knowledge that you can then apply to side projects. Kaggle is a good place to look for datasets and use some skills you will learn here, from simple exploratory analysis to statistics and data visualisation.

We all learn in different ways, but what helps me is making notes, which I do both in the old-fashioned way, in a notebook. But I also like to keep summaries in a repository in github, so they are always on hand when I need them.

You should also consult the community here in case you get stuck.

Happy learning :slight_smile:
