Twenty-five (25) students each from Section 1 and Section 2 were drawn using simple random sampling technique. There were 50 respondents out of the total population of 90 students.

Data was analyzed through percentage, mean and standard deviation. The study concludes that, 1) On clinical performance/practicum affecting intellectual and non-intellectual factors, clinical performance is affected by the intellectual factors.
