We always encounter some misfortune throughout our lives. Resilience is the ability to respond well to challenging circumstances. A cross-sectional study was conducted to assess the level of resilience among 257 secondary school students using the Bharathiar University Resilience Scale. The average age of the participant was 16.03±0.74 about gender, with males higher than females. The median resilience assessed among the students was 101, with an IQR of 18.50. This study showed that 128 (49.8%) students had low resilience, and 129 (50.2) had high resilience, further it was revealed that the selected socio-demographic variables were not having a significant association (P<0.05) with the level of resilience. Students with low resilience can be educated about problem-solving skills and coping strategies to promote an optimum level of successful adjustment in life.
