I'm going to law school this September and I NEED good grades during my first year in order to land a good job. I've heard that adderall will increase my concentration, memory and performance if I take it before exams. Should I take it?

Better to take it for studying than exams

Make a good revision schedule and stick to it, drink water, eat a banana a day, stay motivated and take breaks sensibly, don't use drugs

Took it for about 4 months straight. By the end I felt like a zombie. The effects were barely working and I needed it to get by. 7 months off it now and I’m more productive than ever. Eat right, get sleep, grow the fuck up and work hard. You’ll be good.

Take that shit if you want to destroy your life. Sleep, eat well, exercise. Do fun shit on your time off. Get in nature. That's how you go the distance son.

Take it sparingly when you got a lot of work due soon; not good for prolonged usage.

Are you american/ canadian? I've noticed that is so common among NA students.

You don't need it man. ALl you need is effective time management with EFFICIENT studying. Don't go to library for f12 hours and get 5 hours work done. I'm in my penultimate year of med school, and I have better grades than my upper-taking peers. They use beta blcokers to stave off nasty sides, and benzos to sleep if they're too wired. Its ridiculous. I'm not an autist either, I train 4/5 times a week, eat well, see gf, etc. Its just time management. You'll be fine. Don't be doping yourself up to study for something that doesn't need it.

Yes but for the love of God get a prescription. Tell the doctor you cant focus and he will give you some


I'd you take too much you will not only fuck over your academics, but potentially get addicted

Yes it literally does like a ton. It's hard to not take it too often though. That's why these people are saying no. It's incredibly easy to think that you're just gonna take it one more time and stop tomorrow.

yes, combine with coke for added 'I'm a fucking lawyer-ness' and with meth+viagra and/or crack for nights out/long drives/mowing the lawn. Keep some barbiturates and LSD handy for when you need to take the edge off, some opium for concentration in lectures and you'll be Just the best damn law student, like, ever

It's about time management
If you took Adderall you'd still browse this God forsaken board

If you don't have an addictive personality, it can be extremely useful for occasional use (once ever 1-2 weeks). More than that and you may get your self in trouble.

Better be committed and avoid addiction or you'll end up with tons of debt and your brain will have shrunk

No. Adhd stimulant drugs may improve focus
slightly but they have actually negative impact on working memory. Working memory is needed both verbal and math tasks

Hello OP,
I sincerely hope you will read this. Either way, this may prove useful to whomever reading.

The most important property of a successful scholar, when learning a subject, is consistence.

Now, as I can deduce from your post, you lack this property, hence your need for that substance. As it turns out, you don't need it.

However, you're standing at the edge of failure already. That's right, if you don't act now, you won't be able to fix your problem in time.

The fix is simple, but is incredibly hard of nature. You need to have order and structure in your life. Only in this way, can you have the mental fortitude it takes to be the best student (unless of course you posses eidetic memory).

You MUST start to clean up your act, and transcend into malehood.

You do this by realising that nothing else is more important than your duties to this world. This means, video games and other time waste is only to be consumed in the future, after success has been ensured.

Once fully realised, you should also realise that creating structure and not living like a spineless worm, is necessary, thus removing the need for useless time waste.

What I'm trying to convey is that you need to fix your habbits and the time is NOW. NOT tomorrow, not in a month, NOW.

Work out, eat proper, they tell you. You try, and you fail. No, this is not a fix that can be done quickly. It requires a lot of time, hence the NOW.

You need to incrementally get better. This is the only possible way, for people that are not forced.

Get a little better at becoming a man, day by day. In three months time, you shall have transcended.

Incremental is the key.

God speed, Anon.

I wish the best for your future.
