As some of you may know, I do research on Korea's education system. Though I've been doing it for just less than a month(so relatively new), an unexpected thing happened. I sent an email with a question to a author/professor of a book I was reading, which is titled "Competitive Education is Barbaric". And you know what? He replied. And he wants to make a CALL with me! Now, what does this show? Just last month, I was a non-enthusiastic researcher. But after I was introduced to this community, I was motivated to pursue my own research, which led me to this event happening. I can't hide my excitement... I'm just happy! And I'm sure you guys can achieve this level of success too. Just remember that the faster you start, the better the outcome. Don't hesitate, and keep going forward. UPDATE: I had the call today, and I must say, it was a very motivating experience! But I do have a question. At the end, he said "call me again if you have any more questions", in a kind of hurried way. What do you think this means?

I am so confused whether I want to be a Lawyer or a doctor? I don’t know any I’ve league worthy ECS for either. Does anyone have any ideas?

How much time does it take to learn or train a machine-learning program for a research project as a beginner with no experience in machine-learning or programming?

Hey man, this is just my personal observation but the more I look into extracurriculars, the more I realize legit everyone trying to get into the Ivy League is doing the exact same 4 5 starter pack extracurriculars like creating a non-profit, starting or leading some club, doing some random internship, doing research with a professor etc etc. Theoretically, if everyone is doing the same thing wouldn't that have an inverse effect and make you stand out less and just look like you did all of it just to get into an Ivy League instead of genuinely pursuing your passion. Idk man, I'm just genuinely confused . If not these, then what else can one do?

following my passion i am deciding to make a AI autnomous car for my project is it good?
