Does drinking coffee (or any other caffiene drink) before an exam help you? I've tried it once for a modern history exam (because i slept at 4am, spending the last 12 hours before it learning the whole syllabus), and funnily enough i topped that trial. How about you guys?

nar caffeine sucks, if its effect dies on you halfway through the exam you're fucked.

i love caffeine for late nights before exams for cramming but.

I'm a regular coffee drinker, so there's no doubt I'll be havin' a cuppa' tomorrow morning - maybe two. :)

I feel curious to now try the energy drink 'strategy' - that could be interesting.

Don't drink anything besides water.

They'll disqualify you for substance abuse.

Im not a coffee person, but i always chow down a red bull before i go into an exam. I also drink it whilst im studyin, so ts a bit of a memory jogger as well. Have been drinkin 1 before all the exams for yr12. Helps for me i think.

I masturbate before an important exam.

It prevents me from havin' a tug in the middle of the exam as sometimes I can't control myself...

Coffee? NoDoz? My vote is for ice. A few lines right before, and to avoid crashing mid exam, grab one of those pencils with the erasers, remove said eraser, and stuff with methy goodness.
