DOES CAFFEINE CHANGE

HOW WELL YOU DO IN SCHOOL?

14.

You might think that a cup of coffee is just what you need to keep you

alert during a boring class. Or you may guzzle an energy drink to help

you stay awake for studying during finals week. But actually, caffeine con-

sumption has been linked to students not doing as well in school. Scien-

tists suspect that caffeine

may affect your abil-

ity to remember and

learn. Caffeine also

interferes with your

sleep schedule—and

sleepy brains don’t

learn as well!
