It used new case with 13 features from applicant that will be predict as new case, then calculate local similarity using euclidean distance and hamming distance while global similarity using nearest neighbor. Maximum value of global similarity taken as solution while revised will be done if it’s value below threshold.Result of this study show that system can help study program to manage educational process.
