Medical students have higher rates of depression and anxiety than their peers, but medical and nursing students who work with patients develop better coping skills for anxiety and depression. Therefore, we conducted this study to identify some indicators of student’s mental health and investigate whether they affect academic success. 1388 students participated in our study; 18.5% were male, 81.1% were female, and the average age was 21.1±3.4. 4.4%-4.6% of all students surveyed are mentally healthy without anxiety, 62.2% have moderate anxiety caused by the situation, and 53.0% have high anxiety caused by background or personality characteristics. The majority of anxiety caused by stressors was found in 59.8% of first-year students, and 65.8% of fifth-year students had moderate anxiety. 57.7% of anxiety, and 46.8% of 5th-year students had a high rate of anxiety. 15.6% of students with high anxiety due to stressors have a grade of D, 41.9% have a grade of C, 39.3% have a grade of B, and 3.2% have a grade of A, while 9.8% of students with low anxiety have a grade of D, 45.9% have a grade of C, and 39.3% have a grade of B, and 4.9% are studying with an A grade, respectively. When students have severe anxiety, 41.2% of students are less active in learning, while 45.6% are at an average level of learning activity. It is statistically significant (p = 0.001). In conclusion, severe anxiety leads to reduced learning.
