It has been shown that high levels of anxiety and stresscan have a negative impact on student performance during exams [2]Although there is research criticizing the efficiency of traditional exams, most courses stilluse traditional exams as their main assessment method[15]. For this reason, this researchproject aims to contribute to improve the efficiency of traditional exams by introducing acoffee break during traditional exams.

, and ethnic diversity. Among its 3100 undergraduate students,around 39% are recipients of Pell grants, and 29% are pursuing majors in STEM fields. Thecampus faces challenges as a significant number of students come from K-12 systems thathaven't adequately prepared them for college-level math and science. Additionally, manystudents work over 20 hours per week, often off-campus, and spend an average of 2 hours dailycommuting on public transportation.These circumstances contribute to lower retention and graduation rates, particularly affectingstudents from racial and ethnic minorities who are already underrepresented in the STEMworkforce. Notably, recent data shows that only about 45% of all majors manage to graduatewith a bachelor's degree
