i have heard that the herb sage, oh wait or is it oregano. helps with that.
obviously i haven't had either of them
but it would be worth it to ask someone at GNC or you local health and natural store.
i wish i had something, because i actually knew this answer, and forgot it....

You have to try this!! It soo works!!
Go to GNC and ask for L-phenylalanine. Take 4 capsules 45 minutes before desired study/test time. Its an all natural amino acid and is totally safe. It is one of the only Amino's and dietary supplement that can easily pass the blood brain barrier. it is responsible for removing brain fog and helps you concentrate!!
Must try the GNC kind because of quality and potency.

I've tried ginseng and ginko but didn't notice a big difference. As boring as it sounds, exercise, eating right, and sleep helped me the most.

burn some rosemary oil in an oil burner, it is said to improve memory, has a nice smell too!

Sleep is the best drug known to man. Make good use of it.

peppermint. Suck on a mint while you are reading. it opens the blood vessels in your brain
