Best drug for an exam

So I've got to sit this exam in a few months. I sat it last year and failed, and I blame my failings primarily on my inability to concentrate towards the end of the exam. Its a marathon of a test. Altogether about 6 hours long, with just a half hour lunch break after 3 hours. For the last hour of the exam I was literally a zombie. My brain had stopped working. I had a double espresso during the break, and plenty of food. But still I crashed.

What specific drugs will help in such a situation? Something that will keep my mind fresh, without inhibiting my mental abilities. It is quite a technical exam.

I've heard of Adderall, Ritalin and Modafinil, but I don't know much about any of them? Which would be most suitable? Or are there any others? Its just something I'll use as a one off. Perhaps use once a week or so before the exam to acclimatize myself with the effects.
 
I'd go with an amphetamine like Adderall (IR or XR), Dexedrine (IR or XR), Vyvanse, or Desoxyn. Methylphenidate doesn't last quite as long, and isn't as strong, and modafinil is definitely not as strong. I wouldn't try to accustome yourself to the effects before hand, because the first time can be magical, and magically productive. You'd likely breeze through the exam with ease and comfort, confident as could be. Your mind will be sharper and stronger. If you choose an amphetamine that is not instant-release, I advise you to redose during the lunch break. Don't take too much amphetamine, but the right amount will help you heaps.

This is basically the only answer to this question and everyone will probably agree. Most people will agree that adderall and dexedrine are your best bet, and other amphetamine based drugs like vyvanase and desoxyn are other options but may be harder to find. Stimulant drugs like ritalin can also help, but amphetamines are preferred by most.

Could the effects of Adderall not overwhelm me? And/or hinder my decision making ability?
 
If you take too much amphetamine, you're going to be sat there incessantly twirling your pen and glancing at the clock every time you see the second hand move out the corner of your eye.

A good night's sleep and a good breakfast is all you should reasonably need to perform your best under examination conditions.
 
Well I certainly agree with Alex in that you should try it a few days before the exam in order to become familiar with its effects.

What do you mean by the effects overwhelming you, or hindering you decision making? Random people won't notice that you are high, and you won't be out of control or anything, if that's what you were asking.

Alex was saying I shouldn't test ha. I was suggesting I take a test-run.

What I mean is, the stimulating effects won't be so much that I become "less clever" so to speak. Ie, mdma has a stimulating effect, but if I was to take that my work would obviously suffer as a consequence. I don't want any 'recreational' or 'euphoric' effects to come into the equation, and thus detrimentally effect my performance.

And to whoever said a good nights sleep and a breakfast would do the trick......it didn't work last year, I was still mentally drained by the 4-hour mark.
 
If I was you Id smoke a few points of meth like half an hour before the exam, always made me concentrate on shit and never got tweaky or jittery. I always focused on things i needed to. Meth was my homework drug in highschool, smoke like a 20bag and do a shitload of homework or studying and pass out.
 
Hmmm I've been leaning towards Adderall. Only I'm struggling to find any chemists online that deliver to the UK.
 
What about caffeine if you just want a perk up? A cup of coffee contains a moderate amount of caffeine that should be just right.

Again, that didn't work. Did you read my post?

I would like to find a drug that is going to enhance my ability to concentrate after a prolonged period of extreme concentration and brain-power.

Sorry I posted this in the basic drug section, but I've been pretty disappointed with the response. Partly because most posters have been Americans, but unfortunately I don't seem to be able to find as easy access to adderall as they manage. I can only really find modafilin from online chemists.
 
Caffeine wears off after about 1.5-2hrs, so it's no surprise you crashed out towards the end.

You need lots of sleep prior to your exam and hydration throughout. I wouldn't advise taking any drug for an exam.
 
piracetam.

it's glorious and genuinely increases mental agility, ime. clarity of thought and focus while taking it is ace, and not in a stimulant kinda way, and not jittery at all

beautiful 'drug'. I'm currently looking at ways to synch it with 'phet better without killing my kidney because they don't play ball. if i eventually make that happen, life will be glorious
 
I'd avoid modafinil personally. can come with bad side affects that are hard to counter.

piracetam can come with headaches initially, but taken with some choline, they disappear
 
See I'm already getting better replies here :)

All our friends across the pond were suggesting Adderall. It sounded promising at first, but a little research suggests it might be too powerful just for an exam. And impossiible to get over here.

So Modafinil or Piracetam? What are the differences?
 
Work on your concentration, have a balanced, clean and good diet, do exercise, get enough sleep, have no or very little drugs <3
