The Relationship Between Time Management and Academic Performance Among University of Cape Coast Psychology Students
The Relationship Between Time Management and Academic Performance Among University of Cape Coast Psychology Students
1. Introduction
Students in general have very busy and stressful lives because they are attending
classes, completing assignments and studying for exams. In addition, they have their daily
routines and lifestyles that are necessary for creating balance between their academics and
extracurricular activities. However, finding time to do everything at once can be challenging and
overwhelming. This is where good time management skills come into practice. They must take
necessary approaches and apply those strategies in order to be effective and more productive.
Having these skills gives students the ability to plan and prioritize upcoming assignments and
events. This is an important factor in keeping students organized and avoiding procrastination,
which ultimately leads to academic success (Cyril, 2014-2015, p. 38). The main goal of this
research is to examine the relationship between time management on academic success of
University of Cape Coast Level 400 psychology students.
