A survey was made of academic difficulties among undergraduate students at Ain Shams University, Cairo, during the academic year 1979-1980. Almost 6% of students dropped out before graduating and a further 8% required substantial extra time to complete their course of study: these figures were almost identical for both sexes. Psychiatric disorders were diagnosed in 42% of male students with academic problems (compared with 9% among the academically successful), with neuroses accounting for nearly half of the cases and schizophrenia for a quarter. Serious psychiatric illness was nearly four times as frequent among 3rd-year students as among 1st-year students.
1979 - 1980学年期间，对开罗艾因夏姆斯大学的本科生学业困难情况进行了一项调查。近6%的学生在毕业前辍学，另有8%的学生需要大量额外时间才能完成学业：男女比例几乎相同。在有学业问题的男生中，42%被诊断患有精神疾病（学业成绩优秀的学生中这一比例为9%），其中神经症占近一半病例，精神分裂症占四分之一。三年级学生中严重精神疾病的发病率几乎是一年级学生的四倍。
