My wife’s friend is a dietitian and I thought I’d pass along her thoughts on proper nutrition for the exam. Thought it might help Night Before: Stick to food that you know you will digest easily. Avoiding spicy foods, alcohol, and caffiene is a good idea. A piece of fish wtih rice and vegetables would be good or a pasta with shrimp and vegetables in a light tomato sauce would work. Breakfast: oatmeal with yogurt and fruit on the side OR an egg white omelette with veggies in it and 2 pieces of whole grain toast on the side. Lunch: A wrap would be good: a whole wheat wrap with either tuna or chicken or turkey in it, plus lots of veggies, a yogurt or glass of milk, and a piece of fruit. If this is not enough, a bowl of soup as well. Post-Exam: For the love of god, drink like a fish.
No alcohol the night before the test? There goes my pre test ritual diet of 10 Coors lights tomorrow night
So let me get this straight, you have a room filled with 1000 people that have eaten tuna, eggs and veggies?
night before, crown an zan: breakfast, odwalla chocolate protein shake, banana, (gonna stop by grocery store tomorrow and get too many snacks so that I have many options): lunch, our local CFA society provides us box lunches: post exam, baller bed and breakfast with the wife in wine country. i will also take in the advice of boost’s wife on the post eam reco!

and lots of water today and tomorrow. by the way, are we allowed to bring in a bottle of water? do not recall it anymore.
we can’t bring in water, but they have those little stations where you can drink water away from the exam booklets I have been killing a 750ml bottle of Pellegrino per hour for the past 3 hours . . . staying classily hydrated
thanks phil.
