Abstract
The Gaokao, China’s National College Entrance Examination, is a high-stakes test that significantly impacts students’ academic futures and career opportunities. This paper examines the mental health implications of the Gaokao, focusing on stress levels and coping mechanisms among senior high school students. It explores the societal and educational significance of the Gaokao, identifies specific stressors related to its preparation and performance, and analyzes the correlation between stress levels and academic performance. Additionally, the paper discusses the short-term and long-term effects of stress on students’ overall well-being and offers recommendations for immediate and long-term interventions. These strategies aim to reduce the adverse effects of stress, enhance students’ mental health, and improve academic outcomes. The findings highlight the need for a balanced approach to stress management and support systems to ensure students’ success and well-being in the face of high-stakes examinations.
