Abstract
In the kingdom of Saudi Arabic (KSA) education community, especially in the secondary and tertiary, there are many arguments about the university admission criteria. Specifically the pre-university exams where in KSA they are GAT and AT. Many students have a very high score in the high school, but they did not enter the college they want because of the GAT and AT scores. In this paper, we applied regression techniques on datasets of graduate and undergraduate students to find if the pre-university exams have a real effect on the students’ college GPA. We found that high school GPA effects the college GPA more than pre-university exams, and that the enrolled year has an unexpected effect on the college GPA. We also found that the mean of students’ college GPA is decreasing by time.
