Abstract Anxiety disorders are combinations of emotional disorders that have profound effects on the mental status of individuals. One of the most common presentations is a panic attack, in which students experience attacks that are especially close to tests and examinations due to the cumbersome academic workload. This paper reviews the effect of anxiety disorders among medical students at the University of Nigeria Enugu Campus. An online questionnaire was distributed to the 3rd, 4th, and 5th MBBS classes in an attempt to determine the prevalence and knowledge of anxiety in these classes, and any known coping mechanisms and to perform a comparative study on socio-demographic, academic, and personal factors. The results revealed a preponderance in females and fear of failure and a high dependence on receiving emotional support from family, praying and meditating as coping mechanisms. Hopefully, this study will inform academic authorities on the need to adjust syllables due to increased workload as a contributing factor of anxiety disorder and school authorities on the need for a closed student-lecturer interaction.
