Since the last century, the importance of spatial ability has been emphasized in regards to intelligence and the teaching and learning of mathematics. In this work we have chosen the Carroll model to analyze the spatial ability of students in the Polytechnic University School of San Sebastián. We have proposed three objectives: to analyze the spatial ability of students of first course based on specialty and sex, and in relation to the grade obtained in technical drawing; to analyze, in a similar manner, the spatial ability of students of third course; and compare both results.
