摘要：Recent studies show that proficiency or success in a subject might correlate with some other subjects. For example; if a student is good at math, s/he tends to be successful in physics or chemistry. Starting from this point and based on our own observations, an interest about the possible relationship between success in English as a foreign language learning and mathematics emerged. Therefore, the intend of present study was to examine the link between the freshman students’ success in foreign language learning (Leng 101 course) and mathematics (Math 151 course) at the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Gaziantep in relation with some variables namely; their gender and departments they studied. The results revealed significant relation between Leng 101 and Math 151 final grades (p<0,01) and a significant difference among the departments in terms of success in foreign language (p<0,01). Moreover, an independent samples test revealed a significant difference in English as a foreign language success between genders (p<0,01).
