Journal Title: International Journal of Research in Social Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 10

Abstract

Present world is statistically and technologically advanced. It is driven by high aspiration, motivation and the unsatiating desire to excel in all walks of life including education. Today’s students and their parents are more concerned about their higher academic achievements. Academic achievement is determined by many variables and the most important among them are school environment and the students’ self concept. The present empirical research has taken these two variables as independent variables and evaluated their impact on the students’ academic achievement. The study has also analysed the differences in academic achievement in regard to community and gender variables. Results have indicated significant influence of the independent variables on the dependent variable.
