AbstractThe present study was conducted to investigate the differences of self-concept of secondary school students of Rajshahi City Corporation (RCC), Bangladesh, with reference to academic achievement and socio-economic status (SES). The study was conducted on 160 secondary school students (80 high achievers and 80 low achievers) selected purposively. The students belonged to classes from six to ten. The age of the respondents ranged from 11 to 16 years. The self-concept scale (Ahmed et al. 2017) was used for collection of data and measurements of academic achievement and SES. The obtained data were analyzed through mean, SD, and t-value. The findings through t-test revealed that there was a significant difference (df =158, t= 29.60, p<0.01) in self-concept of secondary school students in terms of academic achievement. The results also revealed that there was a significant difference (df =158, t= 5.53, p<0.01) in self-concept of secondary school students in terms of SES.
