Abstract
SALCEDO BARRAGAN, Mileidy and VILLALBA, Angélica María. Academic performance in high school as factor associated to academic performance in college. Civilizar [online]. 2008, vol.8, n.15, pp.163-186. ISSN 1657-8953.
This study intends to find the relationship between academic performance in High School and College, focusing on Natural Sciences and Mathematics. It is a descriptive correlational study, and the variables were academic performance in High School, performance indicators and educational history. The correlations between variables were established with Spearman's correlation coefficient. Results suggest that there is a positive relationship between academic performance in High School and Educational History, and a very weak relationship between performance in Science and Mathematics in High School and performance in College.
