Abstract

This study aims to develop a web-based major prediction system by applying a linear regression algorithm to enhance transparency and accuracy in the selection process. The system predicts 14 available majors at SMK N 1 Percut Sei Tuan, including: Civil Construction and Housing Engineering, Modeling and Building Information Design, Geomatics Engineering, Electrical Installation Engineering, Electrical Power Network Engineering, Heating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Engineering, Audio Video Engineering, Machining Engineering, Welding Engineering, Light Vehicle Engineering, Motorcycle Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer and Network Engineering, and Television Production and Broadcasting. The system uses report card scores from the 5th and 6th semesters of junior high school as predictor variables, including Bahasa Indonesia, Mathematics, Science, and English. The system development method includes data collection through observation, literature study, and interviews, as well as system design using PHP, HTML, JavaScript, MySQL database, and XAMPP. System modeling was carried out using UML (Unified Modeling Language), which includes use case diagrams, sequence diagrams, and activity diagrams. The linear regression algorithm is implemented by calculating subject averages, regression coefficients, and intercepts to predict student acceptance. The results of the study, based on five student data samples, show that M. Dafi and Ahmad Suhendra were not eligible for any major. Adellya Saputri and Alfit Septian were accepted into one major, Television Production and Broadcasting. Meanwhile, Ummi qualified for five majors: Modeling and Building Information Design, Audio Video Engineering, Welding Engineering, Light Vehicle Engineering, and Television Production and Broadcasting.
