In this study, a group of high- and low-achieving students was carried out with the aim of classifying student efficiency and performance. By combining two techniques, namely the k-means algorithm and elbow clustering, so that the performance results will be more accurate in analyzing and evaluating the progress of student performance. The results show that the application of the Elbow method in this study produces the best number of clusters into 3 clusters. The results of this cluster are useful for the program in analyzing student academic performance based on the cluster formed.
