Can I get into the Data Science meme without a Masters/PHd in Statistics/Math?
I did a BS in Computer Science, but I ended with a 2.8 GPA overall, so I can't get into any good ones.
But what do data scientist do?

idk, whatever I can make 100k+ per year without more than 50 hours per week.
I already do mind numbling boring software development right now. I don't think I could ever truly become passionate in it anyways. I like it enough to come to work everyday and stay on task.
