The basic objective of the research is to determine whether the education that prospective teachers at different fields receive is related to their levels of problem solving skills and self-confidence. Within the mentioned framework, the prospective teachers&#8217; problem solving and self confidence levels have been examined under several variables. The research sampling has been formed by 162 students who are currently studying for their bachelor&#8217;s degree in Marmara University, Ataturk Faculty of Education (n = 92 Music, n = 70 PCG). 70.7% of Music Teaching Department students are females, 29.3% are males and 69.6% is between 18-22 ages. 52.9% of Psychological Counseling and Guidance students are females, 47.1% is males and 97.1 % of them consist of the students within this age group. The Problem Solving Inventory developed by Heppner and Peterson (1982) and the Piers-Harris Self-Concept Scale adapted to Turkish by Çataklı and Öner and Individual Information Form has been utilized in the research. The data of the research have been analyzed by, t-test, Kruskal Wallis-H, and Mann Whitney U tests. The findings have introduced that there are statistical differences in the aspect of some sub-dimensional values for both scales (Avoidance: t=-2.330; p<.05, Individual Control: t=-1,975; p<.05, Behavior: t=2.009;p<.05, Intelligence and school status: t=-2.496; p<.05, Coming into Favor: t=- 2.487;p<.05) and it has been revealed that the relations between students&#8217; self confidence and problem solving skills are negative. As a result, although correlation between two variables showed opposite relation, one variable is not decisive in the other.
