Abstract
Motivation is a very important concept in human being. The three components of motivation are activation, persistence and intensity but when we examine more motivational components for socially advantaged and disadvantaged college students, we find that aspirational level, degree of risk taking and the achievement motive also plays a very important role in their future decision making and as a motivational components. Socially disadvantaged college students sometimes lag behind due to lack of resources and guidance and they also pay some psychological price and advantaged students can excel with the help of supportive peer group and surrounding but it does not apply everywhere and every time. Goals and motives are inseparable and young mind can do anything irrespective of their social background if they have one set goal and clear motive to achieve it.
