Abstract
A critical issue facing universities in Palestine is allocating students’ majors by the factor of the final high school grade (Tawjihi), therefore many students choose their majors according to their final grade rather than what they are actually interested in.
The project is based on a case study of the subsequent performance at An-Najah National University of students of different majors.
By tracking their performance for the years 2010-2016, using data mining methods, we were able to estimate the likelihood of success of subsequent students based on their high school grades rather than the final grade.
