Methodology- A Quantitative approach and descriptive correlational design were used. after getting permission from the ethical committee, using a purposive sampling technique 97 students were selected. Emotional intelligence was assessed using the KA Davies (BEIS) Brief Emotional Intelligence Scale (2010) and academic performance was assessed using the Christopher McGregory Academic Performance Scale (2015). The result revealed that 42 and 32 students had below average emotional intelligence and low academic performance, 19 had moderate average emotional intelligence, and moderate academic performance, and 36 and 46 students had high emotional intelligence and high academic performance respectively. There was a positive correlation between emotional intelligence and academic performance score r= 0.18 at p<0.05. There was a significant association between emotional intelligence score and the demographic variables like the father’s , and mother’s educational status(x2 = 29.3536.), and current habituation (x2 = 27.4891). and previous standard test score (x2 = 25.2974) at p < .05. Conclusion- Therefore emotional intelligence development skill programs can be implemented in the curriculum to improve their academic performance.
