Abstract: In this study, an expression for the discriminant rule in the situation of two groups was derived. This was used to identify the relative contributions of the subjects to the separation of the groups. Group dependent Fisher discriminant analysis was employed in classifying students into various departments on the basis of their cumulative results for one year foundation programme (Preliminary Degree Programme in a University of Technology). The discriminant scores for each department was predicted with probability of correct classification of 0.796 and apparent error rate of 0.204.
