Im brand new to this NOOP scene. Im doing this course and looking for something that will help me concentrate for a course im taking. I lose my concentration very easily and eventually just fall asleep…
Vin is pretty cheap, there are quite a few brands. Obviously with something that is “altering” my concentration (affecting the brain) I probably should throw in a few extra shekels and get something of quality.
Power Drive vs. Vin is this apples and oranges?
I also read on here that Aniracetam is good, but I want to start slow…
If you are rested and fresh I’d go with aniracetam. I haven’t tried Vin, but powerdrive doesn’t do much for me unless I’m mentally foggy from a workout.
the effect of Power Drive is probably more noticeable, but it’s only really noticeable (as bulletprooftiger suggested) when you are noticeably foggy to begin with. in my experience, vinpo tends to sharpen up concentration in a small amount regardless of how you’re currently feeling. from the sounds of your post, i would probably recommend vinpo.

Washing down adderall XR with a glass of black tea is pretty good to overcome this as well I’ve also heard good things about modafinil, but I tried it and apparently bought fake shit.
I took aniracetam for a short duration(basically one bottle), and felt noticeably sharper the whole time, and for a week or so after I finished. Planning to get some more in the future.
As for vinpo, I have used the Vitamin Shop brand, and had good results. I received a concussion in Sep 04 on a static line jump(bad landing). For over a year after that, I had issues with short and mid term memory loss. I started taking vinpo because of this, and saw a marked improvement over time. Never made the connection between the concussion and the memory issues until after taking vinpo for a few months. Definitely worth the look. If it’s for school, I would definitely look at the aniracetam as well.
You can take all the shit under the sun to jack up your brain power but it doesn’t mean dick if you’re not well rested. Like steroids without working out.
Vinpocentine is the shit, it’s great. It’s relatively cheap and gets the job done.
Take it and take some extra choline (I prefer it as DMAE). Use a little caffeine to wake your ass up and you should be good to go.
If you need help with overall sharpness Aniracetam is a good option, if you need to memorize massive amounts of info I suggest Oxiracetam.
My 2 cents.
Do your research and figure out what you want/need before putting anything into yourself, though.
