Indeed, high level of anxiety will make the student not concentrating well , so, he/she can not respond to the provided questions. All  what that student facing this problem could do is to: Attend all of your classes, know when the exams are scheduled, study in a location where you can concentrate, get interested in the material, and give it your complete attention.
