Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify if there exists a significant linear relationship between the curriculum exits of the senior high school graduates and their sex, age at the time of graduation, track/strand, and SHS final rating. This research utilized the quantitative research approach, particularly Descriptive-Correlational research design. The population studied were the 556 senior high school graduates of Dulag National High School, a public high school at the Schools Division of Pangasinan 1. Using simple linear regression, it was found that there is a significant linear relationship between the SHS graduates from 2018 to 2021 who pursued higher education and employment and the four independent variables (sex, age, track/strand, and final rating) which have been tested individually. However, entrepreneurship and middle level skills development has a significant linear relationship with only two independent variables: track/strand and SHS final rating for entrepreneurship; and age graduated and SHS final rating for middle level skills development. Moreover, using multiple linear regression revealed that the four senior high school curriculum exits have a significant linear relationship with sex, age graduated, track/strand, and SHS final rating when tested all at once. This means that the graduates’ sex, age at the time of graduation, track/strand, and final rating have an either positive or negative impact on the curriculum exit paths that they pursue.
