The results also indicated that there were statistically significant differences between the mean scores of students of the full and part time programs on the dimensions of (scientific knowledge, scientific research skills, creative thinking, leadership, motivation, and independence) and the total score on the scale of student performance in favor of the full time programs.

While the results showed that there were no statistically significant differences between the mean scores of students in the full and part time programs on the dimensions of (critical thinking, and problem solving).
