Abstract

The purpose of the study is to analyse various trends related to procrastinating behaviour of millennials in the context of online exams by using analytics. The study analyses the data collected through an online test given by 302 MBA students. Results of this study indicated that 77.4% students procrastinated until the deadline and 71.5% students procrastinated until last 12 hours of the deadline. Male students were found to procrastinate more than females. The study also uncovered that more the procrastination, lower is the grade of students. It was found that females take more time to complete the task than males. More students gave the online test during PM hours than AM hours but the scores for students giving the test in AM hours was more.
