Hey guys! Something I've started to realize is how important eating correctly (and not drinking too much coffee) is important for these tests. Since this test is around 3 hours, and you'll be using every ounce of energy in your brain throughout, the energy you put in is an underrated part of taking this test. At first, I felt that as long as I was full, I could move on through the test without any issues. But the more tests I took, the more I realized that eating a properly balanced meal (one that includes a lean protein, some whole grains and vegetables) allowed me to stay focused throughout. As far as coffee goes, I've personally found that drinking over 2 cups of coffee before a test makes me twitchy and more prone to a crash during the test. I'd love to hear what you guys think about this!

I need coffee for everything. Yes, excess amount of coffee create anxiety, but I just finished a 3 year journey on CFA exams: each is about 6 hours long, plus 3 more hours of instruction, 1 hour break, another hour of collection, and it did not happen to me. I mean yes to some minor extend but definitely not damaging your performance. I think in the end of the day it is about your preparation and how comfortable you feel about your craft.
Great post. You're absolutely right. I tend to do far better on a PT when I've eaten healthy carbs and protein prior.
