ABSTRACT
Universities can select their student more and more independently. In order to support the selection process, university screening test system (USTS) are possibility and balance benefit and effort of this research work within this context, I pointed out how university screening test systems are designed, what competences are covered, and which methods of development are used. For this purpose, I developed a classification how university screening is implemented. furthermore, competence as the bases of screening test are appraised. Various degree of this automated screening test system were also highlighted in the research. The system being implemented in focus uses Microsoft basic 6.0for test running with DBMS used to backup with Microsoft Access.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.0 Introduction
The introduction of computer into educational system began many decades ago. Only in the last decades or has it become an essential scientific methodology for research and education in rarely area of engineering and in may branches of science. There are several reasons for this remarkable progress. First, and perhaps foremost, is the steady advance in computational science that made it possible to vastly extend the range and depth of applications of simulation as a key methodology. Secondly, almost in all areas of engineering and science computer simulation has enable the researcher to study and predict the physical events as an extension of their theoretical investigation.
In many cases, it also provides powerful alternative to the experimental science when phenomena are not observable or measurement are impracticable or too expensive. A third reason is the rapid advance in computer and networking technologies and their associated software innovation that allowed simulation to become a powerful and ubiquitous tool for engineering and scientist. Supercomputing at teraflops levels is now really available at the top, either as dedication simulation tools or as a shared facility via a high-speed network for collaborative research among research at a distance.
