Abstract
This study examined the effective study habits and strategies of Grade 10 Academic Achievement Awardees at Iligan City National High School for S.Y. 2024–2025. Using a descriptive mixed-method design, data were collected from 40 awardees via surveys and interviews. Descriptive statistics summarized quantitative responses, while thematic analysis was used to interpret qualitative data. Findings revealed that students employed structured routines—such as goal-setting, time management, and regular review—and used study aids like flashcards and visual organizers. Motivation, self-discipline, and a supportive environment emerged as critical enablers of their consistent performance. Drawing on current research, the study aligns with evidence that self-regulated learning practices positively impact academic success. Overall, the combination of effective study habits and self-regulated strategies contributes significantly to high academic achievement.
