This study aimed at studying the relations between creativity of male and female high school students majoring at Humanities, Mathematics or Science with their academic achievement. 320 students (176 male and 144 female) were selected through cluster sampling who responded to creativity questionnaire. Academic achievement was measured by students’ GPA. Data were analyzed through Pearson Correlation Coefficient, Stepwise regression Analysis and Analysis of Variance. Results revealed Fluidity and Expansion, as components of creativity, were respectively the most powerful predictors of academic achievement. Multivariate Analysis of Variance showed components of creativity were not different by students’ major of study. Additionally, results of Analysis of Variance indicated there were no gender differences in components of creativity.
