The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of Meta cognitive awareness on entrepreneurship talent. The sample consisted of youth in the age group of 22 to 28 years, randomly selected from various enterprises and public & private sector institutions located in Punjab. Meta-Cognitive Awareness Inventory (Schraw & Dennison, 1994)), Entrepreneurial Talent Scale (Surila Aggarwal & Ira Das, 2000) are used to study the correlation between meta cognitive awareness and entrepreneurial talent. It is hypothesized that meta cognitive awareness is positively related to entrepreneurial talent. The findings have significant implications in assessing the important role played by meta-cognitive awareness in entrepreneurial mindset.
