Abstract

Relationship between creativity and academic performance has intensively engaged attention of researchers over the past few decades. Roots of creativity are grounded in knowledge, originality and wisdom. The underlying gap between creativity and its academic performance led to formulate this study. The objectives of this paper were two-fold explaining the correlation between creativity and academic performance as well as domains of creativity and academic performance of undergraduate students. Concurrently six null hypotheses were tested. The researcher designated schematic framework, using models, particularly Amusement Park Theoretical framework (APT). In correlational study, using Yamane formula and stratified sampling technique, 331 undergraduate students studying in three major courses from six universities were sampled. Standardized scale developed by Kaufman (2012) was administered. Academic performance of Board’s past (HSSC) exam formed baseline. Pearson coefficient correlation applying SPSS 20 yielded no correlation between creativity and academic performance. All the six null hypotheses were accepted. Conclusion indicated that prevailing system of hurriedly completion of courses; textual content delivery and memory-based examination constitute pitfalls of indigent education system.
