There is no evidence supported by medical journals that recreational cannabis use adversely effects your short term memory after you come down from the ‘high’. Governments in the US and some in Islamic countries propose evidence that was discredited in the 50′s.
You need to think of the cost, benefit analysis. If the cannabis relaxes you by a larger margin than your preoccupation when you could be studying, then do it. If vice versa, then don’t.
In the same way that I wouldn’t drink, for the week or two leading up to the exams if I could be studying, but if I was stressed out, then I would drink a responsible amount.
No one knows yourself better than you, so weigh up the personal pros and cons, and base it on that.
What I do is study my **** off, then get super high as a little reward for working so hard. It works best for me…everyone is different.

It is maybe not easy to answer this question with a clear yes or no. Cannabis may affect your performance, but not if you are lucky. Nevertheless I have found some disturbing reports of side-effects who are hardly mentioned in the literature. Drug users occasionally report about the ‘horror trip’. You may sense this like a sudden attack of inner demons, when your defences are down. This explains why in some cases cannabis users who usually have no problems with this drug go mean. A number of killings or suicides have occured where there is only this unclear link to cannabis abuse. Well, it’s clear to me.

Don’t smoke while you study; your memory will be adversely affected.
