A total of 257 Form Five students representing six schools that took geography involved in this study were selected through random sampling. Data were analysed using SPSS software by selecting the Pearson correlation analysis. Research finding showed that students’ attitude has a significant relationship with student achievement. Meanwhile, interest, teacher’s roles and parents' roles have no relationship with student achievement.
