Someone here will be able to provide the drug enhancement information for
you, but I'm not good at it. <br><br>
This is what I do:<br><br>
Exercise to get the blood going and wake up the mind<br>
Enough sleep because sleep deprivation causes lack of attention span,
<br>
Daily short meditations to still the mind for better focus<br>
Practice, practice, practice<br>
Organize your study area to eliminate clutter<br>
Separate yourself from any external tensions that would disrupt your
focus on homework <br><br>
Best of luck with your studies,<br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Does anybody have any

them? I'm particularly interested in how effective they are, their<br>
cost-effectiveness, and any side effects.<br><br>
I've already come across resources like the Cognitive Enhancement<br>
Research Institute
(<a href="http://www.ceri.com/" eudora="autourl">http://www.ceri.com/</a>
), but I'm interested in<br>
personal thoughts and experiences.<br><br>
A slashdot story I submitted on the topic some time ago:<br>

I'm going to spend the next few months studying for grad school
quals,<br>
and I need all the help I can get. :)<br><br>
