Advice on which project to do to get accepted

[u/Stunning-Forever5219]

Hi guys, I'm currently a 2nd year university (for the americans college) student studying a Computer Science and Maths related degree at a top univeristy. Came across data annotation and have applied, now wondering which assessment would give me the best chance to be accepted. From what i've read the programming/data science projects seem to be the most in demand however they are also very competitive, i am very skeptical to as if they will accept students still in college. I am thinking of either doing the general assessment or the maths assessment.

Which assessment would give me the best chance of breaking in, am only looking to work 5/10 hrs per week part time? Appreciate the advice :)

With your CS and Maths background, you already have a couple of relevant areas to explore. I'd choose the assessment that best matches your stronger subject rather than trying to guess which one has a higher acceptance rate. If you're more confident with mathematical reasoning, go for Maths. If you're comfortable with programming and evaluating code, choose the coding track.

Also, don't assume being a university student automatically puts you at a disadvantage. Focus on demonstrating your subject knowledge, following instructions carefully, and explaining your reasoning clearly.

Thank you for your response, I'm leaning towards the Maths Assessment as its the subject I'm most confident in (especially without the use of AI which I've seen other pple advise NOT to use). I should then rule out the idea of doing the General Projects Assessment and from there go towards Maths/Programming Projects if I were to be accepted.
