The document summarizes a study on academic stress among university students. It conducted a survey of 50 students at the Autonomous University of Baja California to identify the causes and effects of academic stress. The study found that most students were familiar with stress and had experienced academic stress before. It also found that many students did not dedicate enough time to their academic activities and felt that stress negatively impacted their grades. The survey results were presented through graphs to analyze the levels and impacts of academic stress among the university students.

13. Conclusion
 The problem of academic stress can be resolved. It
will, however, take time and a lot of effort from students. It is good to
remember that stress is not always a problematic or bad thing. It can
also be the impulse that students need to give the 120%, the motor
for them to finish any task.
 Organize time, have a healthy and balanced diet, and doing
exercise are some of the ways that students can go against
academic stress.
