Abstract:
The aim of this research is to identify and analyze some of the factors influencing the academic success of law school students, as well as to define the key issues. The study involved students enrolled in the first to third years of the 2023-2024 academic year at the Ikh Zasag University School of Law. The research measurement used a questionnaire with 33 items across 5 categories, based on a 1-5 scale. The data was collected through the Moodle learning platform and analyzed using the SPSS 25.0 software. The measurement fit was assessed through a factor analysis with Promax rotation, reliability was measured using Cronbach's alpha coefficient, and factors influencing academic success were analyzed through descriptive statistics and differences were analyzed using ANOVA. The result of the reliability analysis showed a coefficient of .919, indicating that the measurement is reliable and fit. According to the results of the empirical study, factors such as the teacher’s level of knowledge (57.7%), the student’s own effort and initiative (56.0%), and the student’s ability to listen to others (53.7%) have a "very high" influence on the academic success of students studying in the legal program. These findings were revealed through the research results.
