Question 2

Many practical studies are carried out to investigate factors affecting college students’ performance. The focus of this research is that student performance in intermediate examination is linked with students’ outlines consisted of his approach towards communication, learning facilities, proper guidance, and family stress.

The research is based on student profiles developed on the bases of information and data collected through assessment from students of a group of private colleges. The tables below provide descriptive and regression statistics:
