Method of this research was used to verify the negative correlation between religiosity and stress ahead a national exam in high school students. Product moment correlation of Pearson shows the value of r = - 0.176 with p = 0.040 (p < 0.05), which means that there is a significant negative correlation between religiosity and stress ahead of national exams in high school students, thus the hypothesis is accepted.
