This study aimed at identifying the level of self-efficacy and its relation with educational pressures for secondary school students. The study included 342 pupils who were selected at random from all levels. In this study, we used an Arabic copy to measure Amel Maarouf's self-efficacy and the academic pressures measure of Lutfi Abdel Basset Al-Ibrahim. The results showed that there is an inverse relationship between self-efficacy and academic pressures among high school students, as the study found that there are differences between males and females in the self-efficacy in favor of males and differences between males and females in school pressures.
