Abstract
The new admissions examination is an early process in advanced education. Through the entrance examination, the school can select students with the best potential. The exam results can be used as a standard of candidate ability which can further be utilized as a determination of content, methods, and learning strategies. The purpose of this study is to design a system using Linear Congruent Method (LCM) algorithm on the Computer Based Test (CBT) for the new admissions exam. The system build using Waterfall software development life cycle method. The designation of the LCM algorithm is based on consideration of the conformity of the LCM algorithm to be used in the randomization of questions on CBT. The result of experiment shows the ability of LCM to rendomize the question and answer of new student admission test is running well, so that the exam process can avoid the cheating of examinees, and on the other hand the assessment can do objectively, quickly, and accurately.
