| dc.description.abstract | Abstract High level of anxiety has been reported to impair academic performance of the students. Present study aims at measuring the level of anxiety in medical students before and after their annual examinations. Students of a single batch of MBBS programme were included in the study. Anxiety scores were rated using Zung Anxiety Rating Scale. Mean pre-examination anxiety score was 32.16±8.12, whereas postexamination scores was 27.00±6.64. The difference was statistically significant (t=2.424, p<0.05). The effects of high level of anxiety in the level of performance need to be studied. Keywords: Anxiety score, Zung rating, MBBS, Academic performance | |
