Exam Day

There is a sense of calm now that the only commitment to stay in Switzerland has ceased. The Big Data for Engineers exam went for three hours, with access to a docker container running on exam machine which is able to execute Python, SQL, PySpark and more. It was a challenging exam and if I pass, I graduate from MAS MTEC program from ETH Zurich. If I do not, I probably will not pursue the program further. I think I got what I wanted from the program - motivation and confidence to work on a startup. I'm hoping for the best.

It was a long day today, with me waking up at 7 AM, discussing a potential opportunity to go to Argentina for a workshop, followed by several hours of review and the exam. I will take it easy and start internalizing my life outside of Switzerland. I am not ready for this move back to India.
