> Memantine won't work,
How do you know that? Its supposed to work against (bipolar or whatever) depression and enhance cognition without sending me into mania. That is the plan anyway.
If it were true, smoking would decrease IQ, and we know it does the opposite (because of nicotine, but not enough to justify smoking over).

> Before you start school, do full-time volunteering for several months (now until january) to get yourself into a routine of working. The easiest place to volunteer 24/7 is an election campaign.Im going to english school beginning next week for 3 hours 5 times a week as a start.

And remember, habits matter: try to aim to do your best studying the first 3 weeks, and you'll find yourself sailing through the semester without feeling like you're falling behind and playing catch-up.Thanks, i will try to do that. However i HAVE to take 12 credit hours.
