Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Studies have consistently found that college and university students experience higher levels of stress during exam periods. Factors such as performance pressure, lack of time management, and fear of failure contribute to this stress. While fitting in with peers and maintaining romantic relationships may be sources of stress for some students, they are not consistently identified as major stressors in studies of college and university populations. Missing family members may also be a source of stress for some students, but it is not as consistently reported as exam-related stress.
