document: A humane tool for aiding computer science advisors , computer science students , and parents Over the past few years , the computer science department faculty at Baylor has observed that some students who perform adequately during the freshman and sophomore years have substantial difficulty during the junior and senior years of study . Baylor University is an institution committed to being caring of its students . The objective for this study grew out of these two realities . There are three objectives of this research . One objective is to identify students , no later than the sophomore year , who are less likely to succeed as computer science majors . A second objective is to accomplish this identification by using data from seniors majoring in computer science . A third objective is to begin to use this information at the end of their sophomore year when meeting with a computer science faculty advisor . A regression study is conducted on the data from all students classified as seniors , majoring in computer science in May 2001 , showing grades in six freshman and sophomore courses , and showing grades for at least five junior or senior level computer science courses . These students and their course performance data constituted the study sample
