Stress is the body's reaction to any kind of changes that requires a physical, mental or emotional adjustment. The objective of this study is to visualize and analyze the most common stress factors among medicine students in Iran.

A cross-sectional study was conducted among 3,337 medicine students in Iran. A questionnaire was used to gather the data.

Findings indicated that there was a significant relationship among instructor/student interaction (p = 0.05), intern/externship (p = 0.000), self-efficacy factor (p = 0.05) and classmate pressure (p = 0.007) with respect to the year of admittance. The study further revealed that there was no significant correlation between academic theories, staff/management and admittance year factor. The most common stress factors among extern/intern group were the lack of educational disciplines in hospitals and related wards.
