It's an effective treatment for ADHD.

That's a fact. As many college students have known over the years, a bong hit or two before studying or before an exam improves academic performance. You just gotta be careful not to overdo the dosage. Slight buzz = improved concentration.

Really? Are you sure? Dont get me wrong. I had a lot of fun with what my nanna would refer to as university cigarettes but I dont think they ever were a study aid. If anything my mind would turn to food. Speaking of which one of the best student foods in the world was "special" mars bar slice (Milky way to you Americans)

Mars Bar Slice

3 cups rice bubbles
5 x 60g Mars bars, chopped
75g Butter
1 tablespoon Golden Syrup
150g Dark Cooking Chocolate, chopped
A few big buds
Method:  Place chopped Mars bars in a heatproof bowl with butter and golden syrup. mix the dope buds in.
Microwave on high for about 1 1/2 minutes or until Mars bars are melted. Mix until smooth.
Stir in rice bubbles and press mixture firmly into lightly greased 20cm square cake tin.
Place in refrigerator until firm.
Place chocolate pieces in a heatproof bowl. Microwave high for 1-2 minutes, or until melted.
Spread evenly over slice and refrigerate until set.

Maybe you don't have ADD.

As for the munchies, I always waited till after studying or after the test before eating, because then I'd get too laid back and sleepy.

note that marinol, although it contains THC, "contains the active ingredient in marijuana" is not an accurate statement. marinol is in fact a synthetic analog, a little bit different from actual thc.
 
compare the THC molecule

with the marinol molecule

also note that THC is not solely responsible for the effects of cannabis. there are a few hundred other compounds which affect the experience, along with dozens of other cannabinoids. among them are:

CBD
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabidiol

CBDV
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabidivarin

CBN
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinol

CBG
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabigerol

CBV
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabivarin

CBL
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabicyclol

11-hydroxy-THC
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/11-Hydroxy-THC

(note that 11-hydroxy is what intoxicates you when you eat rather than smoke marijuana, your liver converts thc into 11-hydroxy before it hits your bloodstream, and it causes a more intense high more simmilar to alchohol e.g you get the spins and the walls start caving in)

and THCV
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahydrocannabivarin


although most canabinoids are not psychoactive by themselves, they alter the action of THC and the other psychoactive ones. e.g CBD is known to subdue an extreme thc high, or bring you down in other words, which is partially why sativa strains are psychedelic while indica strains just lock you to the couch. also, many canabinoids although non-psychoactive have many redeeming properties just by themselves, for example CBG lowers blood pressure. the cannabinoids essentially are very balanced - if you take just thc or marinol, you will have a slightly psychedelic experience. if you take just CBD, you'll feel very relaxed and free from pain - but if you combine the two, the two chemicals moderate each other, keeping you from either getting too "bugged out" or getting too lazy.

Consider this: Marijuana was originally made illegal not based on any sort of scientific study, but rather on racism towards blacks and Mexicans.

It definitely entered into the equation, but I think economic incentive, i.e., eliminate the competition, was the primary goal (for Hearst, Dupont, et al).  Racism and self-interest on the part of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, or what ever it was called at the time, were piled on to clinch the matter.

As things stand now, I think economic incentive still plays a huge part of this.  Think of how many drug warriors would be out of business were the laws changed anytime soon.  And this is really just looking at the bottom echelon.  The real movers and shakers in all of this operate far above the fray of ideologues they employ to do the dirty work.

Not into the college thing these days, but I found this to be true while studying last year... A slight buzz helped get me really into those algebra equations...

This has not been scientifically proven, but it is fact IMO, especially if applied in mathematics or any type of logic course.  I could get a tremendous amount of work done in a short period of time.  Chemistry, Liberal arts electives etc. it didn’t seem to have as much of an effect (for me).
But, as mentioned in a previous post, there is a limited window in which it works.  

In college I use to play pool on Fridays nights, belonged to a club.  I found, over and over again that I would get better after a few beers (or a couple trips out back) and I was unbeatable, I could nail a bank shot “Dead nutsâ€

Agreed. GTFO.

I wonder how much damage I can do looking for kids whose siblings were sent to these hellholes?

I could never concentrate when studying and my grades were not always great.  My friend Ellie would let me have a pill of hers which helped me on really big study nights.  I could get so much done in one night but I would pay for it the next day.  It was worth when I took the test the next day.
the who, I heard that too from people who played darts here at the local pubs.
