N2  - ABSTRACT: Academic performance is influenced by numerous factors.  It is largely determined by study habits, which is actually an interplay of different related factors.  With the use of survey as instrument, the relationship between study habits and academic performance of second year medical students who took Pharmacology 2A (SY 1999-2000, first semester) is determined.  The variables selected include the following  :  1) frequency of studying;  2) length of time spent every session for studying;  3) number of absences;  4)  materials utilized in studying;  5)  travel time from home to school;  6) motivating factors;  7)  place of study;  8)  manner of studying;  9)  hours of sleep; and 10) supplements.  These factors are then statistically treated utilizing mode as measure of central tendency and Z-test to assess significance, which revealed only three factors to be significant.  Parameters such as studying a day before and a night before, spending three to four hours and studying in classroom and in vehicles appeared to be related to better academic performance.  Other variables measured have been found out to be insignificant to cause academic failures.   Therefore research is recommended.
