 INTRODUCTION

Background of the study

In the modern world time is seen as an indefinitely divisible and usable commodity. It
helps to infuse the concept of time through the instruction. All the material and human possessed
by organizations can be enhanced in the course of time or be transformed as time goes on; yet
only asset that cannot be changed or purchased or stored is time itself. A famous saying goes:
"Time is gold", Itit is a very important resource and factor that helps run our lives. It is the
director of our lives that tells us what we should and shouldn't do and when to do it. When you
are in a hurry timehurry time flies too fast. When you are waiting. It is agonizingly slow. It is
easy to loose track of time when one is juggling between home school and other activities.
In order for a student to efficiently allocate his/her time he/she has to manage his/her time
properly. According to Macan Shahani Dipboye and Philips(2000)."The secret to achieving
success in life is effectively managing this resource that everyone possesses equally and paying
sufficient emphasis to planning."
To effectively play out one's role as a member of the family as a student as a member of
any social group or association one must be able to distribute one's time and manage it properly.
Forsyth(Forsyth (2010) says that "proper management of time includes planning scheduling and
organizing the time in order to achieve a goal and objective. "Time management is important for
students to get high marks. Students' success in studies depends much on managing time
efficiently. The focus of learning time management skills is just to develop the habits of
spending time wisely.
Time management is the act or process if exercising conscious control over the amount of
the time spent on specific activities especially to increase efficiency/productivity (Stephen R.
Covey 1994).There are many studies that connects time management to student's academic
performance. For example proper time management is linked to a better over alloverall academic
performance (Sevan and Kandy 2011; Adebayo 2015; Kearns and Gardiner 2007; Kausher
2013). K. Vijayaraghan(2011) also indicated that the major cause for poor time management is
drift and procrastination. Although according to Roe et al.(. (2005) time cannot be managed
because it is an inaccessible factor.
The objectives of this study is to know the level of time management of the respondents
namely the Grade 12 Academic student'sstudents of Gil Montilla National High School.
