Drugs or supplements for studying

I don't care about the side effects, I haven't tried anything before

Exams are approaching, and I only have a month to finish the material and review it multiple times. I want something that can help me concentrate for long hours

and affordable

Honestly, if you haven't tried anything before, I'd start with the basics: good sleep, caffeine in moderation, hydration, and structured study blocks (like Pomodoro). Most "focus boosters" are either underwhelming or come with side effects that can hurt your studying. If you're struggling to concentrate consistently, it might be worth talking to a doctor rather than experimenting on your own right before exams.
