  This paper presents the design and development of a proposed rule based
Decision Support System that will help students in selecting the best suitable
faculty/major decision while taking admission in Gomal University, Dera Ismail
Khan, Pakistan. The basic idea of our approach is to design a model for testing
and measuring the student capabilities like intelligence, understanding,
comprehension, mathematical concepts plus his/her past academic record plus
his/her intelligence level, and applying the module results to a rule-based
decision support system to determine the compatibility of those capabilities
with the available faculties/majors in Gomal University. The result is shown as
a list of suggested faculties/majors with the student capabilities and
abilities.
