Mental health is defined as a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, capacity to cope with the normal stresses of life, ability to work productively and fruitfully, and to make contribution to her or his community. Due to the demanding nature of academic field more and more students are now experiencing elevated level of mental health difficulties. A study by Sibnath Deb, EsbenStrodl and Jiandong Sun (2015) investigates the academic stress and mental health of Indian high school students and the associations between various psychosocial factors and academic stress. Academic stress was positively correlated with parental pressure and psychiatric problems, while examination-related anxiety also was positively related to psychiatric problems. Academic stress is a serious issue which affects nearly two thirds of senior high school students in our country. The present study aims to find out the relationship between high expectation level of the parents and the incidence of increased anxiety in school students by following a case study method. The end result of the study shows that the root of the anxiety and drop out lies in the parental expectation and perceived pressure of the student.
