Abstract:
As an academic advisor, a full-time lecturer has the duty to help students in setting up their study plan each semester so that they can perform with maximum efficiency. The aim of this research is to ascertain which subjects determine the students’ final passing results. An academic advisor is expected to be able to predict the students’ final passing results. In order to achieve this goal, discriminant analysis can be applied for this purpose. This particular analysis, based on students’ results obtained in several subjects was applied in this research, and is outlined and presented as an example in this article.
