Self-perception of academic ability is outlook that students have about their abilities in terms of learning activities or in completing school assignments. One of the reasons for the importance of self-perception of academic ability is to be a factor that can motivate students in learning activities. This study aims to determine whether self-perception of academic ability is predicted by the role of student burnout and student engagement. This study was conducted using convenience sampling on high school students during the Covid-19 Pandemic. The number of participants was 96 Tangerang City Senior High School students, aged 16 to 18 years. This study uses the School Attitude Assessment Survey-Revised to measure self-perception of academic ability, the Burnout Inventory to measure student burnout and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale-9 to measure student engagement. Based on the test results using the multiple regression method, it was found that self-perception of academic ability was predicted significantly by student burnout (β = -0.242) and student engagement (β = 0.564). With the results of this study, it is hoped that educators can anticipate learning activities to foster student engagement. With higher student engagement, students' self-perception of academic ability will be more positive. For students, the results of this study are expected as initial information to be more aware of the burnout conditions experienced. Burnout conditions can predict students' view of academic ability to be negative. Self-perception of academic ability merupakan pandangan yang dimiliki siswa mengenai kemampuan dalam hal kegiatan belajar atau dalam menyelesaikan tugas – tugas sekolah. Salah satu alasan pentingnya self-perception of academic ability yaitu menjadi faktor yang dapat memotivasi siswa dalam kegiatan pembelajaran. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui apakah self-perception of academic ability diprediksi oleh peran student burnout dan student engagement. Penelitian ini dilakukan dengan menggunakan convenience sampling pada siswa SMA di Masa Pandemik Covid-19. Jumlah partisipan sebesar 96 siswa SMA Kota Tangerang, berusia 16 hingga 18 tahun. Menggunakan alat ukur School Attitude Assessment Survey-Revised untuk mengukur self-perception of academic ability, alat ukur Maslach Burnout Inventory untuk mengukur student burnout dan untuk alat ukur Utrecht Work Engagement  Scale-9 digunakan untuk mengukur student engagement. Berdasarkan hasil uji dengan menggunakan metode regresi berganda didapatkan hasil bahwa self-perception of academic ability diprediksi secara signifikan oleh student burnout (β = -0.242) dan student engagement (β = 0.564). Dengan hasil penelitian ini diharapkan para pendidik dapat mengantisipasi dalam kegiatan belajar untuk menumbuhkan student engagement. Dengan student engagement yang semakin tinggi, self-perception of academic ability pada siswa akan semakin positif. Bagi siswa hasil penelitian ini diharapkan sebagai informasi awal agar lebih waspada terhadap kondisi burnout yang dialami. Kondisi burnout dapat memprediksi pandangan siswa terhadap kemampuan akademik menjadi negatif.
