Hey @lalitbhagat7, first of all remember that k value is kept odd, to avoid 50-50 votes conflict. Also try, these values of k, 11,13, 15 and you will be able to achieve maximum achievable accuracy using knn i.e. 78-79%. One can’t achieve more with knn, Those who achieved more have using deep learning techniques, no need to ponder on that, proceed with the course.

Hope this resolved your doubt.
Plz mark the doubt as resolved in my doubts section. :blush:
