The study was conducted to identify particular problems among students that cause low test score for the course Genetic Engineering. The investigations were implemented by direct contact of the respondents as well as by communicate. The respondents were selected as randomized method that has low test score for the course and both female and male students have been respondents in the investigation. 15 students had been selected as a sample. The primary data were collected from students through interview, observation and discussion. Teacher-Students Relationship, Laboratory organization, Nature of the course and Boring class were the key terms for making questionnaire’s, interviews and discussions among students (respondents). This is therefore, nature of the course and boring class were the major problems for poor test score to the course as well as poor laboratory organization. Those major problems were identified as causes for lowing of test result. Actions had been taken to solve these problems. For instance, providing easy notes, allowing students to select favourite course contents and allowing students to do laboratory activities. These actions brought a remarkable result among students. Test score result has been increased in a good manner.
