This study also determines the relationship between career intention regarding “Corporate job” and “Academic performance”. However, correlation and linear regression analysis were employed to test the research hypothesis. The analysis of cross-tabulation has been conducted to represent the relationship between demographic characteristics and the academic performance of the respondents. The study findings reveal that there is a very weak relationship between entrepreneurial mindset and academic performance. Hence, this study also clarifies that there is a strong relationship between a job-oriented mindset and academic performance.
