<br/><br/> I. ABSTRACT<br/><br/>Accountancy is one of the top courses in the country, and it has notoriously low passing rates. In<br/>order to understand and learn accounting contexts, one must have a high level of analytical<br/>thinking (Krakoff, 2020). Thus, most universities and private institutions constantly seek to<br/>develop specific areas necessary to improve students' performance and skills in accounting, and<br/>one of the aspects that need to be enhanced is their analytical skills. Despite that, several factors<br/>still need to be considered or hinder the students in enhancing their skills. The main research<br/>objective is to determine the analytical thinking skills of accounting students. A cross-sectional<br/>research design was employed in the study, and 66 accountancy students selected through<br/>purposive sampling were chosen as respondents. The adapted GAT Analytical Reasoning was<br/>used as the questionnaire to measure their analytical thinking skills. Overall, there is no<br/>significant relationship between the year level, sex, and analytical abilities of the accountancy<br/>students. However, there is a significant correlation between their SHS GWA and their degree of<br/>analytical thinking abilities. This may indicate that a student's ability to think analytically may be<br/>determined by their SHS GWA.
