Summary/Abstract: The study draws attention on the issues concerning the relationship between the motivation of the 12th grade pupils to continue their studies in higher education and their school results. In order to accomplish this desideratum, three high-schools belonging to the rural area of Timiș County were included in the study. The method of investigation employed a survey containing closed and semi-open questions. The survey was applied to a number of 159 graduating high-school pupils. The conclusions have shown that the intrinsic motivational aspects correlate in a positive way with school results. The research offers openness to specialists in school and career counselling, who work in the field of pre-university education within the rural area.
