COHEN SCALE

(SHAIKA)

My result is 20. This result means that I have high stress

One example that I was stressed in college is when I have too much
assessment to finish in the same day, and I dont have much time to do it
one effect of stress on me is Not having a good sleep at night, so I take
three swimming classes each week. Its helps me to relax and organize my
thought. It's helpful because while swimming I focused on my whole body
and gave my brain a rest. But when I stop having my classes the stress
. return

COHEN SCALE

(ALYA)

I am moderate stress, and this result means to me that I am in the middle

of stress and I think that I do not feel pressure fast and I can control myself
to be quiet. I feel stress when I will present front my classmate, and that
make me forget every think. I never response to the stress, and I think
positive when this feeling come to me, and it never affects me because I
organize my think and the sentences that I will say it on the position and
the people that always stress they will never fix this problem that they
have and can't overcoming fears.
