    I was curious what do people eat before they walk into a test center?

    Do you drink water, energy drink, coffee, or coconut water?

    Do you eat fast food or go for a salad?

    Are there any other rituals you practice prior to going to exam?

    Running, weights, t.v., movie, video games, sleeping, or runing down the street naked screaming I’m streaking?

    I always take the 8am spot, I wake up, shower, reread any last minute notes and/or flash cards, have a banana and an espresso and go for it!

    Good luck!

    Fairly hearty breakfast if I can (eggs, bread, maybe a little bacon). Sip water just to stay a little hydrated during the morning. Get there a little early so I don't have to run in the test center (they also let me in early last time). Listen to a little music. Play “Till I Collapse” by Eminem before I go in because that song always gets me pumped up.

    Since I've always taken exams in the morning 8:00 AM, and usually on Thursday's, my ritual has always been a big bowl of oatmeal. By the time I start my exam two hours usually go by since I've eaten. Oatmeal has kept me pretty full and not all that starving by the time I was done with the exam.
