I use coffee for that, especially near the exam, it keep me awake, after coffee I was not thinking for taking a nap. But tea as for other days. Actually after lunch you get dizzy but tea can handle it some what. I use to take a nap for 10 minutes on my cubicle in regular days.

I think the best time to study (at least for me) is at night. It's calm and quiet. Plus you feel lighter as you don't eat much (breakfast and lunch in day), unless of course if you do a bunch of nachos. That's a different case.

Although it is recommended do change studying routine to adjust it for morning exam, I still think it's best to study when you are able to concentrate best of all. Many people are not able to sleep the night before exam anyway, plus running adrenalin will keep you awake. Well, karusmle, it's natural to be tired after a whole day of studying!!!???!!!!!!!!!??? take a nap or drink some tea-coffee, like others say.... take a shower, change subjects or do different kind of work-like switch from reading to doing qs.
