    The mocks have started me on the coffee as well! Try getting your iron checked if your still tired after the above suggestion. Mine was really low and now i'm on iron tablets, which has helped

    Also, something I found works wonders for me is maintaining a consistent sleeping pattern throughout the week. Try to go to bed and wake up at the same time on weekends as you do during the week and you'll feel a lot better. I know it's hard to not have a lie-in when you're off school, but it's worth it.

    You're dead right.
    Try not to get hammered Friday or Saturday or both as you seriously won't be right till Wednesday. You'll be like a zombie and nothing will go in.

    i drink half a bottle of pepsi max at lunch and the rest before i study.

    also if you feel tired while studying do something to wake yourself up.
    (i grab my ipod, listen to a dragonforce.........bit of air guitar)

    ..what about one of those ab builders?
    the ones that shock you?

    might not give you a six pack but should keep you awake while studying

    I wouldn't advise getting into the habit of taking a nap when you get home from school... I did it all through 5th year, it just results in staying up until like 2am every night, being even more tired the following day, and you just get into a vicious circle.

    Well, that's what I found anyway, and I was definitely not any more energetic than I would have been otherwise.

    Early nights and making sure you're eating right is probably your best bet

    boost isnt even nice though
    and its expensive
    if your near a tesco (like i am) kick energy drink is the way foward and theres only a slight chance you'll get diabetes from it
    buy the litre bottle of it for like 96c (diet kick btw)

    AND ITS GOT MORE VITAMIN B12 THAN YOU CAN COMPREHEND :) 29 DAYS WORTH OR SOMETHING!!! (shame your body cant store it)
