Abstract: Youth is the most beautiful part of our life. Once the teen is decorated, the entity is furnished as well. Most of the time of this age is the student life. So in short students are the main hammer to develop the present and future generation. Now a day it has been observed that students are running behind certificates, but the real intention of achieving knowledge is lacking. Upholding that this paper attempts to investigate the reasons of being demotivated from learning based study and being motivated to certificate-based study. For the expected investigation primary data has been obtained from about 414 students. The analysis made out of the results through SPSS. For primary data collection, questionnaire method has been followed. After analyzing responses, author comes up in a conclusion that students are not motivated to learn instead the only target of going through the whole process of education is to achieving a certificate to get a job. Frequent examination pressure, too much time spending on internet and lack of family attachment are the leading causes of destruction. The author suggests here to upgrade the method of studying and teaching, the way of increasing parental involvement to guide our young stars in the right direction and the importance of emphasizing on conscious quotient to be able to use intelligence quotient and emotional quotient properly in their life.
