"Every student intakes caffeine at some point or another, whether it be every morning with a cup of coffee or having energy drinks at exam time."
Not every student takes caffeine to get through the day, I still have yet to have a coffee or tea. I also despise the taste of energy drinks, and I don't drink pop for its caffeine, in fact I become tired after drinking pop.
Also: I have 830 classes every morning and I am not tired when I get to class, I just sleep longer nowadays because it makes me more alert. Last year however I was able to get through 3 weeks of class, having only 4-5 hours of sleep a night, and I woke up just fine, but after a while I got really sleep deprived lol
I'm probably just a weirdo when it comes to caffeine lol

Or ... you could not be dumb, and sleep and do fine?
This 'sleep deprived' 'coffee addicted' 'Red Bull at 2am' style of studying is so out-dated.

my roomate in chembio says caffeine morphs/mutates ur cells. i guess ur system gets used to that state, and when the cells return to its normal state ur body goes crazy.
