A small number of researchers have proposed grit as a predictor of academic, non-academic, and non-cognitive performance. However, no such studies have been conducted in the context of Saudi Arabian medical schools. The purpose of the present study is to examine the effect of grit on the academic performance of medical students in Majmaah University.
