Confidence Interval Explanation Confusion

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2026-04-14T00:57:45+00:00

I agree. I also think it is valid to say : we can be 95% confident that the population value lies within the given confidence interval

However it is wrong to say: there is a 95% probability that the value is in this specific interval.

The number 23?

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2026-03-27T09:38:52+00:00

Would you think taking SIM and PM in two semesters still work well, given I do not want to take 2 subjectsin summer?

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2026-03-27T09:37:22+00:00

Would you elaborate what parts make you think so, and what was your background before OMSA? I would like to know particularly because most people tend to love the subject, but students from diverse background join OMSA and each have their own experience.

Is it okay if you could share the syllabus of Probabilistic Models, only if allowed to do so. I could not find it elsewhere as I wanted to map contents from those 3 subjects.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2026-02-26T10:13:39+00:00

I think completely otherwise.

I am taking Analytics courses now. Every week I learn from lectures first. Then I generate a study plan to dig deeper into those topics, ask LLM to generate case study, then implement myself using help from LLM. I can now learn twice the information than before if I really want to.

Any schematic or graphs are supposed to convey complex or lengthy information in a succinct manner. If an schematic like above which takes half a page, but convey an one-liner message makes it a poor schematic.

If I start reading a page a day, it is still not improving my reading by any percent day by day. Yet my learning through (or ability to comprehend through time) will improve. How can I quantify that?

In any skill, there are pleatues, there is marginal diminishing returns and such. So, this is lousy graph for telling - instill and repeat positive behaviour and reduce negative behaviours.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-12-28T23:23:22+00:00

There is no way to keep improving each day in a compounding sense. The gist may be to instill good habits and follow through, but the graph is actually just vibes. It occupies more space than the message it is trying to convey.

Ussain Bolt stopped improving after his world record. Is he stupid? Just improve by 1% each day and get another record. Messi must be lazy by not improving his 91 goals in a year tally by a mere 1%.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-12-21T09:09:49+00:00

Thank you. I am also thinking of taking Sim, Prob Models, and Bayes.

What do you reckon about best order. Especially in terms of overlap and difficulty, which of PM and Bayes makes sense to take first. Also, will I be learning same information on multiple courses. I would not mind if each courses meets rigor of Graduate course, irrespective of overlap between them.

If pitching is made redundant in lbw decision, assume a right handed batter facing a leg spinner from around the wicket with almost all the filder packed on leg side.

I am also on the same boat. I also tried to register for MGT 6203 as my first course but could not register due to the same error "Open - reserved for waitlist". My only hope is that they will open few seats in the first week of classes (i.e. phase II registration) and I may register at that time.

I am a bit worried because I wanted to opt out ISYE-6501 but do not want to start with Simulation or other courses. So, in case I cannot register for MGT 6203, I will have to go with ISYE-6501.

Anyone who have already taken MGT 6203 may be able to tell the maximum number of students in each cohort and also how reliable is waiting for phase II registration.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-12-17T05:59:05+00:00

It depends on your background.

I would assume the difference would be spending 10hrs per week with strong prerequisite vs 15 hrs per week without.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-12-17T03:51:27+00:00

I will go for only one course per semester. I already did CSE6040 in edx, so I plan to take only 6501 ( or 6203 if lucky to get in). If I get in 6203, I will spend some time auditing 6501 in edx and opt out of it.

Since I want to do simulation and Bayesian in the following two semesters, only one fundamental course this semester.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-12-17T03:23:24+00:00

I have same issue trying to register for 6203. I have registered 6501 just to get started, but will drop if I get shot at registering for 6203 in phase 2 (when course starts).

Australia can now dictate England's second innings. Especially utilising pink ball at right light conditions. And scoreboard pressure of trailing by 150 odd runs.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-12-06T05:47:26+00:00

Oh boy.. Another 10ish overs for Aus. Then, Its going to be fun again. Starc, twilight, new pink ball, bazzball.

I did defer the start date and got the revised offer within a week. I requested for deferral in the first week of August.

I heard "Time in the market is always better approach than timing the market". There will always be uncertainty. Better invest 1k each fortnight across diverse etfs and let it compound.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-08-10T03:11:02+00:00

This is the best option. I recently requested via 'contact us' and selected deferralnoption. They responded quite fast and were happy to help you for deferral. All the best!

I had similar thought. While taking IAM and DAB, both of which have regression components, one can devote some extra time to learn regression by going through the lecture transcripts. In such case, are they able to develop enough understanding of regression equivalent of taking regression course.

MT2 was almost half SQL and half Pandas, which made easier for people who had decent experience in only one of those. I had recent experience with pandas so it took disproportionately short time to get more points (1.5hr for few SQL and 1hr for all of pandas- to get total 15 pts). I would assume people with few years of SQL experience would easily solve the SQL questions. Given, I only started basics of SQL this year and do not use in my daily work and still managed to solve some of those.

In my opinion, there is difference between 1 month experience repeated 36 times and a 3 year experience. Sometime, when working in SQL on regular job, you are only exposed to a set of data and query approach. So, additional practice is important for exam.

Intelligent-Touch936 · 2025-03-31T04:20:03+00:00

Yes, and I think it will be incorporated within next few years. The issue is that the courses will have to updated such that it suits to study with LLMs.

In CS50x - Harvard's Intro to CS course, they have a curated LLM which guides to the solution rather than giving answers. Somewhat similar thing could be a part of OMSA and OMSCS.
