The project was designed to compare the laboratory equipment availability (facilities) and status of practical work between Damot senior secondary school and Jiga senior secondary school and their performance with the standard (average test value). All chemistry teachers and 30 students from each secondary schools a total of 84 respondents were involved. Closed ended questionnaire were prepared and descriptive survey method was employed to describe and one sample t-test method was used to assess the degree of availability of facility and the status of implementation and independent t-test was used to compare the degree of availability of facility and the status of implementation. Total average equipment availability and total average laboratory practice (Mean=2.09, sd=0.29, t(83)=-12.53, p<0.05) is far from the test value (2.5). Average Laboratory equipment availability and laboratory practice in Damot high school is (Mean=2.31, SD= 0.221, n=43) had statistically significant difference from Jiga high school (Mean=1.87, SD=0.158, n=41), t(82) =10.611, p<0.05, Cohen’s d=2.32. From the analysis of Chemistry laboratory equipment availability and laboratory practice in both Damot secondary school and Jiga secondary school were found in very low level and much far less than the average availability of chemistry laboratory equipment and status of laboratory practice. From the data analysis average chemistry laboratory equipment availability and status of laboratory practice of Damot secondary school is better than that of Jiga secondary school.

Till now, very limited studies have been conducted in India in context to high school female students. Enrolled in academic session 2020-21, 85 students studying Humanities in 12th standard, in GGSSS, Delhi, India were selected to participate in the study. The standardized questionnaires of the Ego Resilience Scale and Big Five Personality Test were used as the tool of the study. The data was collected using both the questionnaires and interpreted using Pearson correlation and multiple linear regression at a significance level p<0.05. As a result of analysis, Pearson Correlation shows that all the personality traits E, A, C, O have a significant positive correlation with Resilience (r= .539, r=.734, r=.792 and r=. 751 respectively) but N has a significant negative correlation with resilience (r=-.684). Furthermore, the results reveal a statistically significant relationship between the variables of Conscientiousness, Neuroticism, and Agreeableness, and the participants’ resilience scores (R=.859, R2= .738, p<.05). These three personality traits together account for 73% of the total variance in resilience (F=75.94, p<.05). It is concluded that Understanding of the levels and relationship among Personalities and Resilience of adolescents can assist in predicting the performance level of the students and in future intervention programs can be developed accordingly for the students for a successful and satisfactory life.
