The main purpose of the study is to investigate the relationship between learning strategies in mathematics with academic achievement in mathematics among ninth and tenth class secondary level students. Sample of the study consisted of 100 students out of which 50 were boys and 50 were girls. This sample was chosen from two girls’ school and two boys school in Salem District. Learning strategies in mathematics scale was standardized by Pintrich et.al (1991). It consisted of 68 statements. Academic achievement was measured by the marks obtained by the sample in their recently held examination in mathematics in their school. Normative survey method was adopted and stratified sampling technique was employed for the study. The data collected were subjected to the statistical technique like t – test and correlation. The findings of the present study reveal that the boys differed in their mathematical achievement from girls. Girls achieved better results as compared to boys. Learning strategies in mathematics and academic achievement in mathematics did not go together.
