You don't need stimulants you just need to quit wasting your study time on these damn questions and answers. Do your schoolwork FIRST and THEN surf IF you have time.

Well, maybe it's because the exam pressure.. I guess it's kinda normal, I lost my appetite if I'm in some kind of pressure. But my advice, try to eat a little, maybe a sandwich or something, or maybe something even lighter. And drink lot's of milk. It'll help to keep your strength. Hope this help and also hope you'll get your appetite soon!! God bless!! :)

Well study like you always do (unless you have bad study habits then change them)get your rest(if your tired you won't think properly)and there are some good site with tips like the ones below.

Try not to have too late a meal. Your body needs time to digest, and being asleep sure doesnt allow that to happen in the best way.\n     Take a walk after your meal, should help with the digestion, and as a bonus it's a little exercise.

You're in deep doodoo either way.\n\nTo make the best of a dire situation, stay up and pull an all-nighter.  I generally don't recommend that, as you can only remember so much as get more tired.  More importantly, your brain will be running on low power once you actually take the exam.  My experiences with all-nighters are generally not good.\n\nSince you didn't study at all, the benefits of an all-nighter out weigh the costs.  Sure, you won't remember as much or function as well at the exam, but at least you remember some of the material instead of nothing.\n\nDepending on how much time you have before school (I'm assuming at least 5-6 hours), maybe take a short 2-3 hour nap before getting up and studying with caffeine.  Before you goto school, make sure to eat well and take a shower for wakeup purposes.

Try citrus or spicy foods. Just stay away from starches/carbs because they can have a sleepy effect.  Lots of protien, too for keeping your brain sharp. \n\nAlso, have you tried getting extra sleep??? Good Luck!

Plan your time wisely. Have short breaks in between  and cut down unnecessary interruptions like the television. Cut out caffeine. REWARD  ypourself when you have done enough study. Make sure you get a good sleep the night before.  Wake early  and revise your test.  Eat healthily. Good luck.

- take frequent breaks\n- drink water - i have found this helps\n- drink green tea (alot less caffeine in tea) and no jitters\n- eat fresh veggies that are raw! great nutrients and energy\n- eat fresh raw fruit if you want a bit of sugar\n- make sure you stretch your arms, neck, legs and back at least every 2 hours\n\nstudying for too long, not staying hydrated and eating junk food will all contribute to you feeling tired and sluggish, but following the hints ive given, you will feel healthier and your brain will be more active\n\ngoodluck

the easy answer is, plan ahead and don't leave all your studying to the last minute :-)\n\nIf you don't have other classes to work around, here is what I would suggest:\n\nT=9:00      Wake up, get ready for the day\nT=9:30    Grab breakfast to eat while you study\nT=9:45    Study for an hour\nT=10:45   Get up, stretch, use the bathroom\nT=11:00   Study for another hour\nT=12:00   Check email, go chat with friends, and otherwise take a break.  Get some lunch.\nT=12:30   Go to a different place to study.  Try the library, or a commons room.\nT=12:45   Study a new subject for two hours (if you have more than one to work on).\nT=2:45   Get up and find somewhere new to study you haven't been to yet today.  Grab a snack on the way.\nT=3:00   Study another two hours\nT=5:00   Break!  Spend an hour or two with friends, playing a game, or basically de-stressing\nT=6:00   Eat dinner, start gearing up to study again\nT=6:45   Make your way back to somewhere comfortable to study\nT=7:00  Settle in and study as long as you can stand\nT=10:00ish Get up, check email, move around, head back to your room if you're not there already\nT=10:30ish Bring your most boring study material to bed with you.  Read it until you fall asleep.  You'll either get lots read (good) or get plenty of sleep (also good) :-)\n\nThis assumes you have a full day, but this gives you a good 11+ hours of studying, and still time to eat, talk with your friends, and generally not go crazy.  It also gives you at least 9 hours of sleep at night, which will really help!\n\nStudying in multiple places throughout the day helps keep you from getting bored (and sleepy) while you work.  Also, if always study the same subjects in the same rooms, it really helps your brain absorb the information faster (strange, but true!).  If your test involves remembering a bunch of facts (like who painted each of these pictures, when, what techniques did they use, etc), study each thing (painting, in this case) in a different room.  Then when you get to the test you can see a painting and remember "Oh, I read that one while sitting in the stairwell.  That means it was painted in X year by so-and-so."  It helps you keep the information from getting all mixed up in your head!

You need the sleep. Study right before bed and your mind will put it all into storage as you sleep. If you insist on staying awake your grade will be disappointing but try espresso or yellowjackets

try staying away from acids and soda. Corn and nuts to be avoided as well. Try a warm sleep tea, and take it easy with the studies, pace youself, you can not change what is and just do the best you can. Sleep is very important

Drink lots of water.  Staying hydrated keeps you awake.

I guess you are tensed about your exams and you have a lot of portion to cover.\n\nFirst relax. \n\nThen plan.\n\nDont dedicate every waking hour of yours to study.  Fix a few hours.  Start with may be two hours and then increase the time as you gain concentration and confidence.\n\nSee where you stand with each of your subjects or papers.\n\nFor the first few days try studying something is a little easy....it helps in two ways....you will finish  studying for that particular paper and you will gain some confidence to tackle the more challenging ones.\n\nTry not to have any distractions while your studying...like TV or taking calls during the period you study.\nAsk you family members not to disturb you during the time you have fixed for studying.\nTry sticking to the same hours everyday for studying.\n\nAnd also try using the same place everyday for studying. ( Until you find a corner in your room where you feel you could concentrate better, keep trying various corners,chairs etc.,)\n\nIf you like you can try having coffee or tea to stimulate you mind. (only if you are already used to having them...sometimes drinking coffee might give you headaches)\n\nJust before you start studying, light a candle and just keep watching the movements in the flame.  Try not to think of anything else and just keep looking at it ...may be for 2 to 5 minutes.  Then blow it off and start studying.  This might help to clear you mind and ready it for studying.\n\nWhen you start to study, if you feel you are not concentrating,  start writing a few sentences you are reading...the ones you feel are important or the ones that strike to you....slowly you will start concentrating.  Also these things that you write down sometimes get imprinted in your memory.\n\nI hope these tips help you.  There is no such thing as you cannot study...keep trying and you will be able to.\n\nGood Luck

Simply get up for stretch breaks.  Walk around the area.  get enough sleep for starters.  Eat breakfast, have a small healthy snack, eat a small to medium sized lunch. Dont overdo it on the caffeine because when it wears off then that makes you sleepy.  Above all what helps me is a chocolate a day!!!!
