Abstract:
As education is the only way to turn a person into human resource, every country tries to
give her citizens proper scope of bringing out their inner ability by offering the appropriate
education. According to the education system of Bangladesh, an 8th grade completing
student has to choose a group (science, commerce, humanity) for further studies. This
group will be his/her initial highway for higher education. But it is a matter of sorrow that,
in Bangladesh this crucial event is done by some rumors and some traditional old school
ways, which are mostly wrong and destructive. From the perspective of this country, the
only way of choosing those groups is previous result. Of course, result is one of the most
important attribute, but it should not be the only thing. Again in this country, Science is
thought to be superior than other groups. That’s why, parents have the tendency to impose
this group to their children without knowing their ability and interest and leads them
towards an uncertain future. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to build a model of group
selection by analyzing some random attributes of higher level students who have already
gone through this event of selecting groups with the help of data mining and some machine
learning algorithms, so that a newly 9th grade student could have the proper direction of
selecting a group which is best for him/her.
