Duque-Soto, Yuli Katherin; Sanabria-Parra, Daniel Mauricio; Aguilera Prado, Marco Antonio
This research paper examines what are the different variables that can influence the performance of individuals in specific Saber Pro financial management tests using the ICFES database as a reference. The process was carried out by contrasting characteristic elements that can favor reaching levels 3 and 4 of performance in the test. First, the socioeconomic level of individuals was analyzed, and the way in which this variable influences performance was reflected. As a second point, the universities that exhibit the best results were identified. Finally, individual variables were considered, such as the number of hours worked weekly, gender and study modality. The results obtained are aimed at the fact that in Colombia education in general has a social unevenness which generates that the academic results at a higher level are inclined towards the students with better economic conditions and to the students who are trained in face-to-face programs. In addition, there are universities in which there are a large number of participants to complete their careers that do not yet reach levels 3 and 4 in the specific Saber Pro financial management tests. Similarly, it is possible to identify that the best results in these tests are obtained by students in the accounting and related reference group. Finally, students who do not work have better performance in these tests followed by those who work more than 30 hours per week.
