This research uses quantitative methods with a survey approach. The data collection technique was carried out through distributing questionnaires to students in class XI Social Economics of SMA Negeri 7 Tasikmalaya in the 2024/2025 school year with a total of 186 students selected through purposive sampling technique, and data analysis using multiple linear regression. The results showed that learning readiness and interest in learning had a significant effect on learning outcomes, both partially and simultaneously. The higher the learning readiness and interest in learning of students, the better the learning outcomes obtained.
