Re:How I Became a Data Scientist Despite Having Been a Math ... by dagw on Tuesday May 12, 2015 @05:44AM (#9530508)
As a math major working with data analysis and data science, I've come to the opinion that domain knowledge of the area you are analyzing as far far more important than being good at math. If I was hiring for a data science position in for example analyzing marketing data I'd definitely hire someone with a background in marketing over someone with a background in math all else being equal.
