A member asked:

Did drinking coffee before exam help in solving the questions in exam or induce stress that affect concentration during exam ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Coffee will never solve exam questions and it will not directly reduce stress. Caffeine may improve alertness which can help.
