Education plays a crucial role in promoting personal and societal growth of individuals. It significantly impacts different aspects of a person's life, such as their personality, social connections, and the pursuit of their goals. This study investigates the correlation between social competence and social intelligence among adolescent students in both rural and urban schools. A sample of 200 adolescent students, with an equal representation from different localities, went through assessment using the Social Competence Scale and Social Intelligence Scale. The results indicate notable variations in social intelligence depending on the location, while no significant variations were found in social competence based on location. Additionally, social competence and social intelligence were not shown to be significantly correlated. The findings offer important implications for educational practices and policies.
