| Summary: | <strong>Background: </strong>The scientific-technological development speed forces a solid meta- cognition development to make a more conscientious and creative use of knowledge. The scientific research of students is an early way to relate them with professional problems and actively contributes to create an analytic and scientific approach. <strong>Objective:</strong> To determine the relation between achieved results in students' scientific research and academic average. <strong>Methods:</strong> This study includes 157 students of second course of Medicine Studies divided in two groups. Inclusion criteria: academic average ≥4 and < 4, (106 and 51 students respectively). Frequency, percentage and correlation coefficient were estimated as well as odd ratio. <strong>Results:</strong> Students with research results had higher academic average and, although the coefficient showed low correlation, ANOVA showed relations between variables and the odd ratio the group number 2, with poor research activity has higher risk (2, 6) of presenting academic problems. |
