This study investigated the influence of problem solving and self- efficacy belief on academic achievement on senior secondary school student in accounting. To guide the study, four research questions were posed and four hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05% probability level. Ex-Post Facto design was adopted for the study.

Purposive sampling technique was used to select four schools where the entire SS11 students are offering accounting and simple random sampling was used to select two classes each from the schools involved. Two instruments were used for data collection in this study namely: There was a significant influence of gender and problem solving on mean score of students’ academic achievement in accounting. There was a significant influence of gender and epistemic beliefs and optimism factors on mean score of students’ academic achievement in accounting.
