Questionnaires were distributed to all the students of third minor M.B.B.S., there were 92 complete responses amongst all 100 students. The mean age of students in our study was found to be 21 yrs, 43(46.73%) were male and 49(53.27%) were female. Majority were from urban area 79(86%). Higher stress level were seen in 52(56.52%) students who had perceived stress score more than 20. Of the 49 females, 34(70%) had higher stress levels and of the 43 males 30 (69%) were found to have higher stress score. The emotional intelligence score ranges from 79 to 136 for females.
