Study Pills
Adderall, a prescribed drug meant for people suffering from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), are being abused by non-ADHD students as magical study pills. Students that cram for tests the night before tend to be the more frequent advocate of adderall.
Fun Studying
I have heard claims that people's studying and reading ability increases after taking a pill. Focus intensity levels will be maxed out and instead of taking 4 hours to read 50 pages, it'll be like 2 hours. The word "fun" is often associated with studying on adderall.
Is It Fair?
Is taking an adderall pill cheating though? Taking steroids to enhance one's physical attributes in baseball is considered cheating, so why wouldn't taking a drug to increase one's mental attributes cheating also? I'm sure student's grades will never have asterisks next to them like some steroid tainted baseball records, but using adderall to study has become a common accepted thing among students like how steroids was with baseball players before the league and government started cracking down on users.
