Vocational secondary schools play an important role in preparing students for the world of work. However, high academic demands often cause stress, especially in the run-up to vocational competency exams. The main objective of this study is to know the relationship between psychological well-being and academic resilience in vocational secondary school students in the run-up to their final exams. The research method used quantitative correlational analysis. A total of 190 Year 12 students at a vocational school in Lampung were selected as research subjects through cluster random sampling. The instruments used included an academic resilience scale and a psychological well-being scale. Data analysis used Pearson's Product-Moment correlation with the help of SPSS version 25.0 software. The results showed a highly significant positive relationship between psychological well-being and academic resilience (r = 0.675 and p = 0.000). Psychological well-being accounted for 45.6% to students' academic resilience. These findings reinforce the role of psychological well-being as an important predictor of academic resilience in vocational education. The implication is that interventions to improve psychological well-being in vocational schools are necessary to prepare students better to face exam pressure and academic challenges leading up to exams.
