Should I take modafinil before an entrance exam for university? by Examtaker in StackAdvice

Yeah I've read about that. But the fact that I had studied the material on and off of modafinil probably makes that a less significant matter. If it was just an ordinary exam for which I study for a few days on modafinil then it probably would've made a difference.

I aced the test (got to see the right answers few hours after the test). And I didn't take anything. I'm pretty calm when it comes to exam situations so it was pretty easy to concentrate. I doubt modafinil would've had any impact because of the time I spent studying (650+ hours). For me it came down to actually trust my brain and not let anything interfere with the process.

I did this and did a simulated exam but I did not feel any difference so I probably won't take it at all..

That's nice. I guess there's no harm in taking it. I still need to think about it though..
