In addition, it will specifically measure whether there is an influence on the level of writing anxiety of EFL students with several factors, such as gender, length of study, and region. There are other things to look for, which are related to the type of writing anxiety experienced by EFL students, as well as what factors have a major contribution to this writing anxiety.

However, EFL students did not feel anxious tothe writing test and writing assessment which percentage of each issue was 7.3%.
