I'm not familiar with the meds you listed, but as an educator, I know that getting some hi-liter pens and color-coding information is very helpful for those of us with wandering minds. Choose one color for main ideas or concepts. A second color for given examples of the concepts/main ideas. A third color for details that you need to find quickly, as you study for tests. A fourth color for Vocabulary words that you need to know or get into your brain's memory bank. It's documented that color-coding text information is very helpful for ADD/H people. It also helps to set a timer for 10-15 min. and commit to hi-liting the text. Then, exercise, walk, etc. for 5 minutes to help the brain process what you just read. Repeat as often as needed to get through the text. Worked for me in my Master's program.
