Closely related sociological factors are collected as raw data and the noise of these data are filtered through the fuzzy interface and the supervised neural network is being utilized to recognize performance patterns against the chosen social factors. The geographical area of the research is Puttalam District. It is a district in the North West Province of Sri Lanka and it is an area of people of different religions, ethnicities, and etc. It also covers two Educational Zones namely Puttalam and Chilaw. The System is trained with the data obtained from a questionnaire given to the sample students before their G.C.E.
