FACTORS INFLUENCING ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT OF ECONOMETRICS STUDENTS IN QUANTITATIVE COURSES

Abstract

This article investigates the academic performance of junior and senior students in quantitative courses at Econometrics Department of Cukurova University. To this end, factor models and stepwise regression analysis are used. To what extent junior and senior year quantitative courses can be explained by quantitative courses which are considered to be prerequisite is examined. Besides, the relationship between socioeconomic variables and grade point average, and between lower level quantitative courses and subsequent core quantitative courses both are analyzed.

Keywords
