Abstract :
Mathematics plays a significant role in the
majority of human activities. It is an instrument of one's
everyday life. The main thrust of this study was to
determine the Mathematics Performance of the
Tagbilaran City College Students, Tagbilaran City,
Bohol during the first semester of academic year 2020 –
2021. Mathematics performance was measured based on
three aspects: Academic Performance, Mastery Level,
and Proficiency Level of students taking up the Business
Mathematics subject. This study utilized in depth
correlational quantitative research, and documentary
analysis. The researcher used purposive random
sampling and chose 256 BS Entrepreneurship and BS
Office Administration first year students of Tagbilaran
City College using researcher-made instruments. Results
showed that majority of the students were in the age
range 18 – 21 and female. Most of them took BS Office
Administration program, were full-time students, and
graduated from K – 12 Curriculum. It was revealed that
students’ academic performance was Satisfactory.
Students proficiency based on the three formative tests
taken was at Minimal Level. Seven out of the nine areas
in Business Mathematics were not Mastered by the
students, within which Depreciation was the least. There
is a significant degree of relationship between students’
academic performance in Business Mathematics, and
students’ sex, and program, but insignificant to age, type
of students, and secondary curriculum taken. There is a
significant relationship between the proficiency level and
students’ age, program, and type, but found none
towards sex, and secondary curriculum taken. There is a
significant correlation between Academic Performance
and Proficiency Level of the students. There is a
significant difference between the academic performance
of male and female students but insignificant in terms of
Proficiency Level. There is a significant difference on the
academic performance, and proficiency level of the
students between the two programs. BS Office
Administration students overpowered the BS
Entrepreneurship students. There is no significant
variance between the academic performance and
proficiency level of the students at different ages.
Significant degree of variance exists on both academic
performance, and proficiency level in terms of type of
student, and secondary curriculum taken, dominated by
Full-time Workers, and Old Curriculum graduates,
respectively. There is a significant variance on the
Mastery Level in the nine areas of Business Mathematics.
The results were the basis in the creation of a Remedial
Program for Business Mathematics students in
Tagbilaran City College.
