Well, this information will attempt to predict the student's final grade based off of their independent variables. First, we're going to want to load in our necessary libraries. After this, we're going to both go through the process to load in our student data, as well as create our model here. As you saw in the last video, we have to create a regression model first before we can test the assumptions of the data underlying it. Let's go ahead and recreate this model and then we can dig into the evaluation metrics. What we're…
