Predicting MS Admission – Data Science Weekly (DSW) – Medium

It's almost admission season and I've couple of friends who are in panic mode waiting for a call from the universities they've applied at. This made me think -- How can we predict whether a student will get an admit or not? What are the parameters for selection? Can it be mathematically expressed? All of these questions started popping up, so I decided to work out this problem and help my friend calm his nerves.
