I want to hurry and get school out of the way and move on with "life after school".

I get strait A's, but in order for me to maintain a 3.5+ I only have time to take 3-4 classes a semester. I'm pretty smart, but A's don't come easy, its lots of hard work.

So you’re probably thinking what the hell is the point of this post? But I won't tell you yet! :P

6 months ago, I was taking the biggest load of my college life.

The most tedious class I had to take was in that semester, Accounting II. Granted it was not a HARD class, my professor was a judge’s wife and I believe she at one time was a drill sergeant. Every single lesson, practice test, chapter review and project in the book was done, nothing was over looked. You would totally understand the chapter after doing 2-3 lessons, and then she would tell you to do the other 10 of them.

The first few weeks of this class, I did start to drag behind; it was just so anal doing every single thing in the book.

Then......*drum roll!*

I was also dieting at the time; I was taking Ephedrine (25mgs) Caffeine (200mgs) and Aspirin (400mgs) 2 times a day.

Not only did it work WONDERS for shedding fat, it also made my concentration go though the roof.

I not only would sit down and do my 7 hours of accounting/and other homework, I would do 85% of my girls cause she was behind.

I would finish test in 45 mins, while it would normally take me double that.

It was amazing.

Now the part I ask a favor of you

I was getting a physical about 3 months ago, me and my doc have a pretty good relationship. I often talk to him for a good 30-45 mins after a physical just asking him ?'s about dieting and working out. He always ask the same questions when I'm getting a physical, one of them being; "Any problems concentrating?"

Does anyone take prescription drugs for concentration? If so what kind and what kinda mgs?

I'm thinking I'll tell him “yes” next physical, not because I feel I really do. Because I'd like to maintain good grades and also be able to take more of a workload.

While I feel it could be bad for me to take prescription drugs to get better grades and finish school faster. I feel that it’s worth the risk, to risk some health for a better life after those 3-5 years in school.
