AS most of the people here have said(except jake, who gives terrible advice) try to NOT cut the sleep. I have seen and experienced the "mental block" effect so many times. and this is mainly because of people lacking sleep, and studying too much even up until the exam.
What worked for me was, study really really early, like a week before. it's in this time that you really study like a madman, cover every lesson, then as the exam draws closer, study less, and relax more. Do refresher courses each day, but not in the RAWR IMMA STUDY mode.
Keeping your brain and body in good shape before the exam is best. makes you a lot fresher and makes you think/recall better too.

Rick, don't listen to Mark! Cram and study at the last minute. Jake's advice is much better!

Sleep is for the weak. And the sleepy.
My take on it is, do what you usually do before taking tests. If you sleep regularly, then stick to that. If you usually stay up late, then do that. If you eat before a big exam, then go gorge yourself. I think people will stick to the regimen that best suits them, especially if said regimen has led to a good test-taking experience before.

How much did you get them for?
85$, plus the guy that sold the pair gave my mom a free set of cheap phones (to her delight) plus he's good at sales talk.
@Rick: Won't help much to tell you now, but you need to sleep before you study, it would at least condition your brain so you can take in data better.
Practical studying will be fine, but if you're trying to memorize stuff, you just might crash and burn, so be wary I still remember how you act when you're high on caffeine, it's like Grams all over again

Okay. Please suspend yourself for 3 days as well. Being OOC in this RPG is a major offense. We're only pretending to be Armored Core players after all.

(Possible) Rave: My grandfather's thinking of getting one of them new-fangled 3D TVs. If he makes his purchase, I might get his old TV set as a hand-me-down.
Rave 2: "Old TV Set" being a figurative term here: it's a freaking Samsung 32-inch LCD TV
