# 🎓 Admission Prediction using ANN (Regression Model)

## ⭐ Situation
Graduate school admission is highly competitive, and students often want to estimate their **chance of admission** before applying.
Traditional statistical methods can struggle to capture the nonlinear relationships between factors such as GRE, TOEFL, CGPA, university rating, SOP, LOR, and research experience.

---

## 🎯 Task
The objective of this project is to **predict the probability of admission** based on a student’s profile by:
- Preprocessing academic data.
- Building and training an **Artificial Neural Network (ANN)** regression model.
- Evaluating prediction accuracy with proper metrics.

---

## 🔧 Action
Steps taken to achieve the task:
1. **Data Exploration & Preprocessing**
- Cleaned and normalized the dataset.
- Performed exploratory data analysis (EDA) to understand correlations.

2. **Feature Engineering**
- Selected key features (GRE, TOEFL, CGPA, etc.).
- Split the dataset into training and test sets.

3. **Model Development**
- Built an ANN regression model using **TensorFlow/Keras**.
- Tuned hyperparameters (hidden layers, activation functions, optimizer).

4. **Model Evaluation**
- Assessed accuracy using **Mean Squared Error (MSE)** and **R² score**.
- Visualized actual vs. predicted admission probabilities.

---

## 📊 Result
- Successfully built an ANN regression model to predict **chance of admission** (0–1 scale).
- Found that **CGPA, GRE, and Research experience** are the most influential factors.
- Model provides a data-driven way for students to **assess admission likelihood** before applying.
