Abstract:
Stress amongst medical students is often
overlooked. Intelligent students are not always the most
composed. This study aimed to look at both male and
female students of three different ethnic groups and the
effects of stress in areas such as academic, social,
financial and their everyday life. The Chinese students
reported significantly less “academic stress” than the
Malay students, and the Malay students reported
significantly less “financial stress” compared to the
Chinese and Indian students. Medical education can be
a health hazard for medical students.
