  One of the most important types of anxiety that is common among students is test anxiety. Metacognitive therapy and cognitive and behavioral stress management are effective and short-term therapies that have been proposed, and their effectiveness has been confirmed. Therefore, the present study aims to compare the effectiveness of the two methods of Wells metacognitive group training and cognitive-behavioral stress management on test anxiety of students. The present study in terms of purpose is applied and in term of information collection is semi-experimental design. A pre-test and post-test design was implemented with two experimental groups and a control group to conduct the research. 33 students were selected by multi-cluster sampling method among the girls' high schools in Sari, and 11 students were assigned in each group. To measure the test anxiety variability, the Sarason scales were used, which were implemented before and after the training sessions. The results of descriptive and inferential indicators showed that only Wells metacognitive group training has a significant effect on reducing test anxiety. Also, the difference between metacognitive group training and cognitive and behavioral stress management was significant. according to this metacognitive group training can reduce the test anxiety scores more than cognitive-behavioral stress management.
