-### University
+> Can we say that having a bad grade in the national "BEM/BEF" exam can affect chances of working in software engineering?
+
+### Higher education
+
+Access to universities and Higher schools is open to holders of the baccalaureate or a foreign equivalent. The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research sets the requirements (scores to have) annually, assigning students to specialties takes the following parameters in consideration:
+
+- **Student choice:** Students must submit their desired specialties to study in order, then they get assigned the first matching choice.
+- **Field of study in the baccalaureate:** Mathematics, Technology and scientific students for example have access to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) branches.
+- **Average score in specific fields on the baccalaureate:** Set annually based on averages, success rate and choices trends of each edition. For example access to Mathematics and Computer science (MI) branch in the university of Algiers (USTHB) was 13.74 in 2018, 13.83 in 2019, 14.27 in 2020 and 15.53 in 2021 ([source](https://finfo.usthb.dz/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/MoyennesMinimales-MI-USTHB.pdf)).
+- **The number of available seats in each field and jurisdiction:** Students are assigned their first matching desired field of study.
+
+This system makes the access to trending study specialties very competitive. Hence, we can use the scores to access these fields in big universities as a metric to see whether Computer science or similar related study fields are trending in Algeria.
+
+For example, in the following graph we compared the minimum admission scores for The [Higher National School of Computer Science (ESI)](https://esi.dz/) compared to success rates for scientific branch:
