Best focus and memory supp

I am about to start studying for my physical therapy board exam, and I was thinking of picking up focus XT. Is that one of the best all in one supps for this purpose. I really dont want to have to order 3-4 individual ingredients to mix and match. I would prefer an all in one! Chaos and pain also has a memory/focus supp; anyone ever tried that?
 
Focus XT gets a lot of praise I have even seen Mr Cooper use it when he was in school studying for his exams.
Bulk products to consider --> ALCAR, Choline, and PEA would be good suggestions, but everyone responds different to supplements so you would have to tinker with what works best for you.
 
I've always enjoyed Focus-XT for sure.

Other ones to consider: Noopept, -racetams (all have their own benefits)
 
Cognitive Long term: fish oil

Multi benefits: ALCAR

Acute, grab the Focus XT
 
I really like Focus XT. If you have to stay up late, or wake up really early (and don't mind stims), you can throw in a cap of bronkaid. I used the bronkaid sparingly, but Focus XT and coffee got me through studying for the bar exam! Good luck with boards!
 
Focus XT and the soon to be available Noopept XT from SNS :D

Still can't post links, but Jiiggz just put a post up about it :)
 
I won't disagree that Focus XT is a great all in one supplement but bacopa might be something to consider for long term use.
 
My go to is alcar + choline and occasionally dendrobium, seems like I just posted this recently. But the alcar and choline plus a little caffeine is a great focus stack for me

PEA? Everything I've seen on it shows terrible bioavailability. Unless used with an MOAI or substrate

Never said you had to take them solo, just providing options for the OP.
PEA works pretty well in some of the pre-workouts i have had it in (Core Fury) For example.
 
I tried amp citrate 250mcg then 500mcg and noticed absolutely f#%k all lol. Was hoping for something special after all the hype.

Yes, no effect :)

I'm afraid noopept would be as worthless to me.

When do you use it and what do you expect?

I think a lot of people expect an acute feeling, akin to like tunmel vision or their brain just working overtike solving the puzzles of the universe, but really many are subtle; work to improve memory and recall without necessarily changing how you "feel".

Some promote a stimulatory effect which can be felt, but not always.

Its not like limitless :D

My memory and recall is impeccable, I was looking for subtle increase in interest in and capacity for problem-solving and decision-making under pressure.

Hey man, mind me asking what effects you get from taking Semax?

It makes me feel really good and alive, kind of like when I was a kid. It gives a significant boost in interest in and capacity for problem-solving and decision-making under pressure :D

Too bad tolerance is quickly built for me. But that is still ok because it works after time off.

Ah! Thats why I use racetams. Just not phenyl.
 
Sounds good. That's the type of effects I was reading about also. Will have to give it a try. What's the best way of taking it? I read subq or nasal?
 
I got the nasal drops and they worked great. I got the powder from ceretropic and it didn't work at all which is weird because their stuff is good.

I had the Made is Russia 0.1% drops first but those went fast. Second time around I got the 1% and it was awesome. It is expensive but I am grateful that such good compounds exist.
 
Has anyone tried Adrafinil?

PTA! 21 years old starting out making 60k a year is pretty darn good from were im from! Lol! Im still thinking of gojng back through the RN program, and then later i plan to become a nurse anesthetist. They make boatloads! I honestly think that a nurse anesthetist is the highest paid profession with the least amount of schooling! I mean 4-5 years making 150k-200k a year is pretty crazy! If i could back up 2 years, i would have done nursing, and then go for a nurse anesthetist!

Study study study!!!! I had a 3.4 gpa (married with 3 kids) and couldn't pass my PTA state boards :(
 
My PTA program i was in(graduated yesterday) is the most renowned in like a 200-300mile radius! So they have a 100% pass rate for boards in the past few years!

You prefer racetams over it or?

Hard to say as I only ever used it late at night. For the purpose I used it it was better than some.

Missouri. And no. I graduatedI almost two years ago.

Is there a max number of attempts to pass the board in Missouri? We have a max of 3 attempts; however, im almost positive i will pass the first time! It sucks though that they only offer the test 4 times a year now!

So jiigzz, would focus Xt be best for just straight studying during anytime of the day(except for nightime due to the caffeine, i plan on getting the stim one)? Main goal is just to improve recall/memory and to stay focused while studying! Also, im also taking EC currently and would it be okay to add in a cap of bronkaid(not the caffeine) to a dose of focus XT? And also, im assuming it would be best to take a dose of focus xt prior to my test! Im still not sure what time i will be taking it on july 8. They have an 8:30 and 1:00 time.

We're allowed 6 attempts. Stay positive, keep studying, and you'll do fine. When are you taking it?

Take prior to studying and you will be set.

If you can take ephedrine without wanting to rave and can keep your mind concentrated then by all means :D
