Abstract: The emergence of data mining techniques has encouraged researchers to attempt to apply them in the educational sector to discover knowledge from the students' data available to higher institutions of learning. This research work aims to develop a hybrid model that predicts academic performance based on admission pattern, thereby assessing the effectiveness of selected algorithms using metrics like Accuracy, Precision, Recall, and F1 Score. The study......
