This study will specifically investigate the personal factors of students, whether they are biographic, or suspected psychological effect on the success of studies in the faculty of Psychology. Demographic factors such as intelligence level factors, whether the school background of high school, vocational school, or MA, and majors of time in SMU / SMK / MA.

The assumption by using several predictors will make more accurate predictions.
