Result Prediction Using Data Mining

Data mining is being used in various fields to dig out important information; it can be very effective in the field of education as well for gaining important information from a large dataset that can be used to improve the educational environment. This paper is focused on an approach consisting of several well-known and widely used algorithms on training data set to predict students’ grade for a particular course based on his/her previous results. Further analysis has been carried out considering several errors and accuracy factors of the resulted data in comparison with the actual data.
