Conceptual Framework & Method At the heart of the Success & Retention model lies the assumption that non-academic factors impact as much, if not more than academic ones one student success Accordingly, the survey was designed to investigate all probable reasons for exam absence – both academic & non-academic 13 questions & 158 items Relevant students were identified –Problem of not being able to distinguish absentees from results outstanding, practical & PG students) Survey notification sent by & SMS with link to access electronic survey
