Abstract

This comparative study examines the differences in learning styles between students of Eklavya Model Residential Schools (EMRSs) and General Secondary Schools (GSSs). Using t-tests for analysis, the results show a significant difference in the learning preferences of students from these institutions. The findings have implications for educational policy and teaching strategies in these distinct educational environments.
