Should je suis toujours anxieux also be an accepted answer compared to je suis toujours nerveux? Or perhaps anxieux is considered more a medical condition and too strong in this context?

Anxieux vs nerveux
This question relates to:French writing exercise "Night routine before a test"

Hi John,
I think you have answered your own question.
The term 'anxieux' is much too strong in that context, it is pretty normal to be 'nerveux/nerveuse' before any kind of tests but if you suffered from anxiété you would probably have to talk to your doctor about it and they might refer you to a specialist.
Bonne Continuation !

Salut John.
Both could relate to being in a state of stress, so look potentially appropriate to me.
Bonne journée
Jim
