The assessment of the level of excessive daytime sleepiness according to the ESE (Epworth Sleepiness Scale) indicated that 31,25% (n=5) of the students had excessive daytime sleepiness and 68,75% (n=11) had no disturbances. Conclusion: It was observed that most students had poor sleep quality and most had excessive daytime sleepiness, directly interfering with student’s academic performance.
