Abstract: Analyzing students’ performance patterns using various statistical techniques always remain a critical task for many researches. This research paper focuses on basic preprocessing and extraction techniques followed before analyzing the student’s performance in academics. The collected information from various colleges has to be cleaning process for removing irrelevancy in data. The repeated records and unfilled data are removed in cleaning stage. The features are to be extracted from the preprocessed record. The research mainly concentrated on analyzing students’ performance from collected information. The extraction process implemented in this research work carefully examined in extracting the necessary features for analyzing process.
