      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: Before the intervention, the students of the experimental group are asked to answer the Toulouse-Piron drawing accuracy test and Sarason's test anxiety questionnaire. Then the test group will be subjected to aromatherapy with lavender essential oil for 10 minutes, in this way the researcher drips 2 drops of 100% pure lavender essential oil (product of Barij Essential Oil Company of Kashan) with a dropper on a 10x10 cloth. And it is attached to the clothes of the research unit with a clip at a distance of 20 cm from the nose. After that, he is asked to breathe for 10 minutes; The intervention is implemented in a separate class that is already prepared for the intervention. Immediately after the therapeutic aroma, the level of accuracy and anxiety of their exam is recorded again. Intervention 2: Control group: Before conducting the study, the students of the control group are asked to answer the Toulouse-Piron drawing accuracy test and Sarason's test anxiety questionnaire. Immediately after the end of the study, the level of accuracy and anxiety of their exam will be recorded again. The control group acted according to the clinical skills laboratory program and there was no intervention by the researcher for them.</i_freetext>
