I was recently prescribed methylphenidate (ritalin) and was obviously on the starter dose only. I was on 5mg for 2 weeks - I felt nothing. This weekend however, since I have exams this week, I decided to Quintuple the dose (I had saved up) to around 25mg. I also took shit tonne of caffeine on top of this.
This was game changing. I was able to study for 12 hours straight without breaking a sweat. I did 10 hours today and 6 2 days ago. I have never even done so much as 2 hours at once before this. That's 28hrs over the three days weekend
However, my blood pressure has SKYROCKETED to 147/73, so there are risks. Also my bpm was 120 at times when I was doing nothing but sitting in a chair. Usually bp is 122/60. I have had constant heart pain these last few days aswell
Although, I was crying tears of joy at points because of how easy it was to learn everything. I felt like a god. I would wake up in the morning, wanting to study. That's all I wanted to do, forgetting about the exams. All I wanted to do was learn because I never really could before. It's like a guy who just got the ability to walk, and wants to run a marathon.
If you've ever watched the movie "limitless" thats exactly what it felt like.

DOSAGES AND NOTES FOR OPTIMAL STUDYING:
20-25mg every 3-4 hours (3x) for IR
40-50mg twice (2 hrs apart) for XR
150mg caffeine every 3 hours
LOTS of carbs - banana with honey every hour.
At least 6L of water throughout the day.
Keep cool - have your windows open.
Personally I like to listen to music as it helps with motivation.
