Study of Academic Stress
Keywords:
Academic, StressAbstract
One definition of stress is "the body's non-specific reaction to demands imposed on it or unsettling occurrences in the surrounding environment. When faced with environmental dangers or obstacles, people use this method to assess and respond to the situation. Stress may be beneficial in tiny doses, as long as it doesn't go out of hand. High levels of stress, on the other hand, may have serious effects on the mind and body if they persist for an extended length of time. According to a recent study by Abdulghani et al1, medical students experience stress at a rate of 63%, with 25% reporting symptoms that are deemed severe. The term "academic stress" refers to the body's reaction to academic expectations that are greater than a student's ability to meet. According to studies, anywhere between 10 and 30 percent of college students feel some kind of academic stress at some point throughout their time in school. Indeed, students who are enrolled in institutions with high academic requirements are under a lot of stress because of this.
