Summary
There are uncertainties that highly affect the emotional and psycho-social well-being of students. Enrolment to the so-called ‘quota courses’ offers different set of requirements and standards prompting pressured students to shift to another course, transfer school or even drop out. These adversities are needed for future growth and development, students face challenges, stress, odds and disruptions in their entire academic journey. Every human unknowingly has its own fighting mechanism to these adversities called resilience, a term that implies stability in the face of change. As defined by Hassim (2016), academic resilience refers to “an energy and drive to learn, the ability to work effectively, and achieve academically in spite of stressors and risk factors”
