Lastly, in terms of the length of time listening to music per week, most of the respondents are approximately 41 hours and above. In the Factors Affecting Student's Level of Performance in Contemporary Music under Distance Learning, most of the respondents tried their best to study before the time for a test and not leave things for the last minute as they found that it only creates more anxiety and stress. In the Difficulties Faced by the Students Learning Contemporary Music under Distance Learning, the majority of the respondents are interested in learning new material and complained a little about seeing the same topics covered more than once in their study plan. However, the performance level of the respondents is high.

Students should maintain and maximize the effectiveness of their efforts through time management. Students should acknowledge that they were unaware of the prerequisite topic, but do not ignore it. Students should participate or partake in strengthening and preserving the significance of contemporary music because it must be studied and documented regularly.
