## Overview

I compared placement statistics from the 2020W–2023W and 2022W–2025W reporting periods to explore differences between engineering programs. The charts express historical placement averages as percentages.

## Process

OpenCV detects colored annotations on the official charts, then calibrated pixel coordinates are converted to GPA values. A Jupyter analysis produces rankings, heatmaps, and estimated distributions, with a LaTeX report.

## Result

Produced the analysis and report. Values extracted from charts and fitted distributions are estimates; historical placement statistics do not predict admission thresholds.
