200 milligrams of raw power. Life feels like a fucking breeze. I want to kick a hole through my wall.

Is it good for studying? I don't drink coffee so I've got no frame of reference.

First two hours and the last hour feel like good study energy. There are also other brands of caffeine shots like "Neuriva Brain +" (which I have enjoyed, probably more than 5 hour energy) which market themselves as increasing focus and the like. The pain difference is they have about 3/4's raw caffeine, and have "Coffee fruit extract" which contains trace amounts of caffeine in its self, and also supposedly incites the brain to release more of a protein that reinforces synapses as they are being formed. Its been recognized by the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation as potentially beneficial towards both preventing and treating neurodegenerative diseases. Take it with a grain of salt that their could be cooperate forces at play here with the studies and claims.

Not a big fan personally. After it wears off you feel kind of shaky, like a caffeine crash in a way, and the energy you have while on it isn't the clearest in my experience. Modafinil is much better if you're looking for a consistent wakefulness without any crash or downside. Only thing is it'll last a solid 8-12 hours (and it's slightly harder to get).

everytime you take drugs you trick your biology into adjusting with chemicals. instead you could be tricking your body with sheer willpower.

This is how I've been for my entire life tbh. I'm just curious about how useful it might be in an emergency cram situation.
