  • Abstract
    This paper will discuss the statistical analysis of students´ examination score in the first semester of bachelor students for Engineering Mathematics and Electric Circuit Analysis subject in Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Malysian Spanish Institute (MSI). The first semester students are from the three bachelor programmes which are Bachelor in Engineering Technology Automotive (BETA) Mechanical, Mechatronics and Manufacturing. The data of students´ examination score is used to verify whether there is a significant relationship between the students´ performance in mathematical subjects and their choice of course. The results have shown that there are apparent differential in the students´ performance in both subjects for all three programmes. Based on these results appropriate discussions and recommendations were made.
