Journal Title: International Journal of Engineering Sciences & Research Technology - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper aimed at studying the factors that affect the academic achievement of students at the Faculty of Sciences and Humanities, Thadiq, Shaqraa University-KSA. Multinomial Logistic Regression (M. Lo.R.) was used to analyze the data. A significant relationship was found between academic achievement and the studied factors. The variables father's educational status, mother's educational status, existence of desire in the specialization (EDS), existence of somebody helps in the study, the average number of hours of revision per day has an effect on the students’ academic achievement. Nearly 56 % of student academic achievement depends upon all the fifteen studied variables. Nearly 50 % of student academic achievement depends upon the five variables that mentioned above. The results of the present study can be made use of in planning for the enhancement of a student's academic achievement. Similar studies in other faculties are needed to support the results reached in the present study
