Conclusion:
On the basis of the findings of the study the following conclusions were drawn.
May students do not study just for the interest of study.
Lack of proper study habit.
The difference in the study habit are attributed to the fact that students do not know
how to study.

Suggestions:
Parents should always check their works at home to ensure that they study more
often than not.
Teacher should motivate students on their study because student must be motivated
before they can motivated before they can study effectively.
