Electrical Technology 2 (TE2) is one of the compulsory course for the students from Bachelor of Vocational Education (Electrical and Electronic Engineering) at Faculty of Technical and Vocational Education. This course consists of four main topics and sub-topic. Students’ achievement analysis in this course for the previous six semester showed that majority of them score gred B+ and below. Thus, this study was conducted to identify the difficulty level for each sub-topic consisted in TE2 course. The research design for this study was using quantitative approach through survey method.
