This research aims to explain the implementation of life skills-based career
guidance to increase SMA Negeri 1 Krucil students' self-confidence in choosing
majors in college. This research used a quantitative approach with quasi�experimental methods and a non-equivalent control group design of XI grade
students of SMA Negeri 1 krucil. Data analysis techniques were 1) normality test;2)
homogeneity test; and 3) independent t-test.
The results showed that students' self-confidence in choosing majors is
higher after attending life skills-based career guidance services. It is demonstrated
by the hypothesis test using the independent sample t-test calculation, which shows
that the results of the final test of self- confidence of students who attend life skills�based career assistance differ from those of students who receive general guidance.
The mean pre-test score of the students' self-confidence in the experimental
group and the control group differs by 4, with the experimental group's average
pretest score of 53.3 and the control group's average pretest score of 49.3. After
treatment, the experimental group who attended life skills-based career guidance
have a higher post-test mean score than the control group students. The
experimental group's post-test mean score is 76.5, while the control group's post�test mean score is 62.5. This difference in the post- test mean score suggests that
life skills career counseling is successful in increasing students' self-confidence in
higher education major selection.
