Coffee & Studying
Started by DrRoyal Pains
I don't know about addiction, but I do have a high tolerance to caffeine from years of drinking soda and coffee. 16+ oz is not much if you ask me.
Yea, scratch addicted, but Im starting to feel like I cant study without it. I usually focus the energy from the caffeine into studying, but I'll find myself banging out 40-50 push ups randomly then continue studying ha.
Haha, not a bad combo, at least you're staying in shape while studying. Maybe I should try that.

I owe everyone of my A's to my coffee machine.
Haven't started studying for the DAT yet but I'm sure I will go from 2 cups/day to 6 cups/day when I do...

I once pulled an all-nighter and drank so much coffee that I had to use the bathroom three times during a 2.5 hour exam. The TA got suspicious that he followed me into the bathroom during the third time to make sure I wasn't cheating.
I'm afraid I may have to wear a diaper to the Prometric test center.

Talking about a shot of espresso? I've been addicted to starbucks coffee ever since i started studying for the DAT. Sometimes i ask for 4 shots of espresso! That really works for me! I stay motivated for a long period of time and am very productive. But that also messes up your sleep cycle. I'd do those 4 shots every other day. 👍
I love coffee. Especially during school, its literally my lifeline. But this past week, I decided to stop drinking coffee because I got addicted to Iced Tea. Yea Iced Tea lol. I made a big ass pitcher every morning, throw some lemon slices in it with some mint leaves and voila! Stuff is amazing!
So today, I decided that Im gonna make some coffee, I kinda miss it. I am not kidding after the first couple of sips my head started pounding and it is still pounding! WTF 😡. No way coffee can you give you a headache....right? I think i just slept in too much lol 😀
Ok, time to go study! WAT UP CHAD! @coolbeans

I was on 2 caffeine pills per day while I was studying... then a week before my test, I stopped taking them but I was super focused every day of that week including my test day.
Now... I've decided to lay off the coffee because whenever I pop 2 pills and down a grande cafe americano, my hand holding the explorer starts to shake, which is not good lol...

I have been drinking 20 oz of french press coffee every morning for the last three years. On the morning of my DAT, I didn't want to break any routine that I was accustomed to, so of course I had my 20 oz coffee (and enjoyed it thoroughly). Fast forward to the PAT, and all of the sudden I had to pee so badly, I ended up leaving 5 minutes before the time was up before checking anything over or else I would have peed myself. Turns out I probably pee at that point in time every morning, but I never take tests that early, so it was never an issue before the day of the DAT.
Turns out the PAT was my lowest score. 🙁
Lesson: Take a caffeine pill morning of the DAT.
