A Correlational Analysis Of Utme And Post-utme Performances



Authors : Aromasodun Ololade .

Abstract

This study was aimed at empirically shedding light on the debate concerning the scrapping of post-UTME as an entrance examination in tertiary institutions in Nigeria. The study, therefore, examined whether there is a significant difference between UTME and post-UTME performances. Six tertiary institutions in Kwara State were selected for the study. A sample of 600 undergraduates was selected through simple random sampling across different departments in the institutions comprising 224 male and 349 female undergraduates while 27 questionnaires were not returned. Data collected for the study were analyzed using STATA 12.0 using correlation analysis and t-test. The results showed that there is a positive relationship between post-UTME and UTME. There is a low correlation coefficient (0.078) between UTME and post-UTME performance of the students. Based on the study of the findings of this study, the post-UTME examination should be retained as part of the admission process as it is significantly different from the UTME examination based on the t-test conducted.
