MaquilanJuvie Dawn The title of our study is Determinantsof Academic Performance of Nursing StudentsJuvie Dawn According to Zwick, there are factors that affect the academic performances that individual characteristic such asprevious school achievements, assessments of capabilities or study motivation, socio-economic background, and parental academic

achievements that have a positive impact on the academic achievements of students.

Juvie Dawn In the study in Quezon City, Philippines, it showed that there is not much remarkable gap in terms of study habitsFrom the 150 students, only 85 students had good study habits while 65 of them had poor study habits. However, students attitudes

towards learning, is worth-noting that of the 150 students, 120 of them have more positive attitude towards learning.

Juvie Dawn On the other hand, a study conducted by Neri in 2007 in Cagayan De Oro City, Philippines, a study was done amongnursing students learning styles and study skills involving 5 nursing colleges in Northern Mindanao, shows that in terms of studyskills, the nursing students are good in note-taking, textbook reading, memory, test preparation, and concentration.

are weak in time-management skills.

affects their academic performance. Not only to nursing students but also to all students whod like to have a good academic

performance.

Juvie Dawn This theory is anchored on Jean Piagets Cognitive stage of development. He believed that cognitive developments suchas sensorimotor, pre-operational, concrete operation and formal operation have biologic changes and maturation that were

responsible for cognitive development. Thus, they can develop a planned pattern behavior that is useful to their goal on becoming a

successful student who has a good academic performance.
