Project Purpose & Objectives

• Through this project, we would like to use student inputted data to calculate their chances of getting into every Ivy league college.

What is the inputted data?

• The program’s input will be the different factors that change a student’s chance of getting into an Ivy league. We will be focusing on the following factors:

• Intended major
• GPA
• SAT/ACT scores
• Gender
• Ethnicity
• Extra Cirriculars
• Clubs
• Essay
• Leadership

How are we going to do this

The output of the program will be in the format of a percentage chance of getting accepted into each ivy league college.

• Brown University
• Columbia University
• Cornell University
• Dartmouth University
• Harvard University
• Princeton University
• University of Pennsylvania
• Yale University

Project Concept (continued):

Furthermore, to get an accurate output, data from multiple sources will be used for each college, primarily acceptance rate data over the past 5 years for each college, based on the student data mentioned previously.

Frontend: Design Methodology

We need to make a aesthetic design, we are going to use bootstrap in synthesis with the normal HTML and CSS.

• Program Purpose: To assign the right college for each person and determine if they can get into an ivy league.
• Data Abstraction: Task the right variables, organize colleges coherently.
• Managing Complexity: Since we plan on using an API in our project, this means that we will be handling a lot of data, hence organization is required. We plan on doing this with lists and dictionaries to create and format our API in key-value pairs. This will be crucial to the function, organization, and efficiency of our project.
• Procedural Abstraction: The search engine will be able to narrow down the results of the different colleges the user may get into.
• Algorithm: We are going to create a function that takes user inputs and compares them to a list of data that we have from the API.
• Testing: Single tests that we can perform on our project can include individually testing each function. That way we don’t code everything, mess up and struggle to find the error later.

Backend Program

We are going to use Jupyter notebooks

We will use JS and Python.

That’s it for now, thanks!
