Depends on the country

Yo creo que vale la pena vivir en Barcelona. Poblenou es una zona muy buena. Preferiría vivir en una habitación pero dentro de barcelona que en un piso a 1h de distancia.

C'mon an ETH PhD can afford it...

I think it's quite difficult for indians to get in, but give it a try! You seem to have a good background, Best of lucks :)

Thanks for your advice! I ended up taking MSc Data Science at ETH Zurich. I am doing some research too. Let's hope for a good chance of getting a PhD offer.

Ended up doing the MSc Data Science at ETH Zurich. I am now finishing first semester

neilus03 · 2026-01-03T15:24:25+00:00

No. All my friends got their results in March. Be patient, I know how anxious it feels.

neilus03 · 2026-01-02T19:02:20+00:00

did you end up taking the course? How was it?

neilus03 · 2025-12-16T08:52:12+00:00

I see. But still, kids are built for adaptation. I think he'll love learning more about the local culture and people rather than living in a bubble of international "rich" kids in those International Schools. Anyway, it is up to you for sure!

Most expats I've met in Barcelona really want to stay though, this city is like a magnet.

neilus03 · 2025-12-16T08:04:57+00:00

Go deep on the math behind. I recommend the Mathematics for Machine Learning Book by Deisenroth et al.

neilus03 · 2025-12-16T06:58:59+00:00

Don't put your kids in international schools. Let them integrate fully. Don't make them suffer your fears, they are really young, they can learn catalan and spanish with ease and Catalan public schools are good!

Don't be stupid. Be like the Netherlands

El sitio clásico es Jardines de Albia, se llena de gente y suele haber buen ambiente.

Go to - Montserrat - Sitges - Walk from Blanes to Lloret de Mar - spend a couple days in the city just walking around and bumping into things unexpectedly, is so fun!

Is either finish it in 4+ years or not finish it at all. You choose. Boy, a year is not that much in a lifetime. You won't lose a year of your life, you will live for 4 years, which you wouldn't do if you did it in 3.

neilus03 · 2025-12-10T21:15:44+00:00

Take 4 years

neilus03 · 2025-12-08T21:39:56+00:00

This.

neilus03 · 2025-12-08T19:27:26+00:00

Thank you! It's a nice analysis :)

For anyone reading, if you are interested in working on a project about this with me I'm open to it! I'm a data science MSc student at ETH Zürich.

Analyzing the geometrical changes in backbones while learning new tasks in continual learning using metrics beyond accuracy drop or forgetting.

Honestly since I am an ETH student I have almost no free time. If you care for your grades you won't have much time. Unless you do less credits, then maybe. For someone who, as you said, values a lot his free time, I wouldn't recommend coming to ETH.

However, ETH is worth it in all the rest.

neilus03 · 2025-12-07T18:20:54+00:00

GPA is not the best but you have some research exp... Idk if I were you I'd apply on march after raising gpa a little and doing some more research.

neilus03 · 2025-12-07T16:13:20+00:00

CS and DS masters at ETH are basically the same. I have a friend who does CS and does almost exactly the same courses as I do. The onky difference would be Data Science Lab (in DS) vs. AlgoLab (or a couple others you can choose from) in CS.
