This research is quantitative survey, the instrument of this study was a close-ended that was adopted from Cheng (2004). It had 22 questions and asked about different types of anxiety (Cognitive, Somatic, and Avoidance Behavior). There were 225 students who participated in this study which divided into 3 academic years. The result of this research indicated that there are significant differences in types of anxiety across gender which are Cognitive and Somatic. On the other hand, there is no significant difference in type of avoidance behavior. As well as at the level of anxiety, the highest score of the two genders is in the Somatic anxiety type; namely, women have a score of 3.35 and men have a score of 3.07 which means both have high and medium levels. There is a slight difference in numbers, so women experience higher levels of anxiety than men, and the type of anxiety they have is Somatic anxiety.
