There's a little pill called 'study buddy' No joke!
Wife used to take it befor e her exams. She was top in class.
I failed a test a couple years ago. 80 was a failing grade. I took study buddy and aced a retake test.
Probably just a vitamin placebo. But it worked!

Get the proper amount of sleep, eat healthy foods, take a walk or some other form of exercise, and study, study, study, study. When you're tired and feel you've studied long enough, then study some more
The best advise I can offer.

BTW when I was in college, I read that listening to classical music while studying helps with concentration. Even today, whenever I'm reading something a little weighty, I tune to the John Sebastian Back station on Pandora.
This is the fuddy duddy answer but the only way to really ace an exam is eat well, sleep well and study hard.
Study Buddy pills are pretty vague on their composition but they do contain caffeine.
I wouldn't take them myself.
If you decide to take them, I wouldn't risk taking too many. Read the directions.

I would say, know the subject matter and don't stress out.
I would say it depends on what kind of exam you are taking. Some exams (I know you were talking about insurance licensing, etc the other day) can be crammed for, IF that is your style. On other exams which require thought processing beyond regurgitation you will likely need to be more rested. Is it a multiple choice test where you are just expected to have the info in your head? Or is it a test where the answers seem to be obvious but you need to find the one piece of info in the question that is meant to trip you up? That type of test usually means delving a bit deeper into the info, studying the exceptions rather than the rules.
It depends on how dire the exam is, what time of day you are taking exam, how you test period. I have found it more efficient to tailor my study skills to the specific test.

I have a bit of expertise with exams - decades worth. I recommend the following program:
Don't drink
Get off the sleep meds
Get off the Nyquil
Continue your snuff or Copenhagen
Get 7-8 hours of sleep
Drink tons of water
Study the content
Take as many practice exams as you can
Begin meditation for 5 minutes a day, in the morning and 5 minutes before you head to sleep.
With this recipe you cannot fail - give yourself plenty of time for the study portion.

I have never done that , but would like to get started
Everything he said plus take a few minutes every morning after waking to ask your higher power for help through the day, say a serenity prayer, read daily page from hazeldens 24hrs book and at end of day repeat this only instead of asking for help... Be thankful to your higher power for making through another day sober. This, is the most simplest form of meditation for a Alcoholic. The main idea is not to "meditate" bust just to take a few minutes for your self before jumping into your busy day and before hitting the rack and going to bed.
Karate, the process of meditation is to train your mind to quiet your thoughts. The simplest form of meditation is to focus on your breath. Take a deep breath in through your nose, follow it into you lungs and stomach and then exhale through your mouth. I then do a body scan thinking about each body part. There are several types of meditation and each is known to work on different regions of the brain. I tend to use a guided meditation for 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes before bed. I am guilty of letting life get in the way some days but can feel when I don't meditate.
There are tons on Google just put in free guided meditation. Here is a link: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=svzll1ywBkk
Your mind is like your bicep. You need to work out and train it to get the results you want. I believe meditation is the best way to strengthen it.
Try a book called Mindfulness for Beginners by Jon Kabat Zinn. I found it wonderfully inspiring. I have many other book suggestions if you are interested. I think you will find all this helps your anger management program too.
Good luck.

Series 6 and 63. These are not bad at all, I have them myself. Study the literature and take as many practice exams as you can. Try to take 3 exams per day. Most of the info you will not remember - this is a cram type exam. So study then take and exam, study then take an exam, study, take the exam. You don't need to understand everything but you will need to know the answers. Multi choice too...good luck.
