In the Bachelor of Education Sciences (LCE) of the Universidad Autónoma de Baja California, high failure averages were identified in men and women from the 2014-1 period to the 2018-2 period. Consequently, the objective was determined to understand this phenomenon from a quantitative methodological approach: on the one hand, through the application of a survey, and on the other, through the analysis of the compulsory and optional learning units (LUs) of six school periods (2019-1, 2019-2, 2020-1, 2020-2, 2021-1 and 2021-2) to identify the percentages of failure in four training areas. The results highlight that students do not usually fail due to academic activities, work, health or family situations. Now, of the most failed LUs, four are compulsory: Psychology and Education, Educational Research, Educational Methodology, and Group Processes; and two electives: Alternative Models of Education, and Educational Problems in Baja California. Likewise, it was identified that in the period 2021-2 the highest percentages of failure of the analyzed LUs were recorded and it is estimated that the failure of said LUs could be due to the performance and mood of the students.
