Abstract

This study aimed to explore the impact of time management on the academic performance of Grade 12 Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) students at Immaculada Concepcion College. Time management is recognized as a crucial skill that enhances students' efficiency in an academic setting, contributing to higher performance levels. The research examined the relationship between students' ability to manage their time effectively and their academic success, providing insights into how proper scheduling and prioritization can lead to improved learning outcomes. This study utilized a quantitative research method, employing a random sampling technique and a descriptive research design. This approach allowed the researchers to systematically analyze the relationship between time management and academic performance among Grade 12 Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) students at Immaculada Concepcion College. Through statistical analysis, the study aimed to provide objective insights into how effective time management influences students' academic success. The findings concluded that the majority of the respondents achieved a general weighted average (GWA) of 90 and above due to their effective time management strategies. By prioritizing their academic activities, students were able to enhance their performance, highlighting the vital role of time management in academic success. The researchers recommend that students practice time management skills such as planning and scheduling to further enhance their academic performance. Additionally, they suggest conducting similar studies on a larger scale and across multiple institutions to determine the replicability and accuracy of the findings.
