The Multinomial regression is specified as P ðMi ¼ jÞ¼ðexpðbj XiÞ= P5 j1 expðbj XiÞÞ, where P (Mi¼ j) denotes the probability of choosing outcome j, the particular course/major choice that categorizes different disciplines. This response variable is specified with five categories: such as medicine, engineering, other professional courses, science and humanities.
