- Abstract
COVID-19 is the cause of a lot of concern around the world. Apart from the obvious physical distress it has contributed significantly to elevation of mental health issues. Students who mostly have not been vaccinated are doing online classes with severe restriction on their social lives. Survey was done with students from school, college and university to determine their mental health status. Their mental health was evaluated with the DASS-21 questionnaire that was distributed and collected online. The students were found to have become vulnerable to stress, anxiety and depression. Their mental health status was found to be poor with university students being most affected. Upon Correlation studies with relevant questions on online education and consequent change in their mode of studies and interaction with family and friends, it was found that university students’ concern over their career led to their poor mental health.
