Red Bull or Burn would be my suggestions, but I'm not a big energy drink fan.

There have been studies showing that one of the effects of sleep is to archive short-term into long-term memory. Further studies have shown that people's ability to recall long-term memory is superior than that of short-term memory recall.
Put those two together, and it would say that cramming for tests by pulling an all-nighter, if in fact that all-nighter has you attempting to learn and memorize new materials is often counter-productive.
Plan ahead, keep up in class, do all the homework, and study as you go...and get plenty of rest.
Oh, and drink Red Bull.

Pull into a GNC and get a sample packet or bottle of "Spike" by Biotest. GOOD stuff w/o the jitters. Keeps me attentive on the road.
Agree with TJR regarding the long term. However, when it came to crunch time, and I hadn't kept up as well as I could have, I always found it better to be tired but well prepared, than to be well rested but not as well prepared. Amazing how much ou cna learn in one good all-nighter!
Oh, and good old coffee was my beverage of choice.

Monster energy drinks seem to do the trick for me, and they taste a lot better than Red Bull.

Do not try RedBull mixed with Vodka.
well, i took my final and lets just say i was very very very attentive. i took a 100 question test in 15 minutes. haha first one done. but i aced it, so it's all good. i think i'm going to write all these suggestions down for next time i have to stay up late, and see how they all work.
i do keep up in class, i never miss one, but it's the last one of the year and i figure i can study now and sleep later. i've been going strong on about 30 hours now, so we'll see. the last thing of red bull is wearing off, so thats no good. but anyways, thanks again for the suggestions. later.

Yeah, just had our finals this week too. Pulled all nighters on Tuesday night and Friday night, and I ended up getting A's and B's on my finals. I went through a case of Vault, which is basically Surge with a different name. 12 of those and a few Krispy Kreme donuts and I was wide awake til early Sunday morning.
Funny side note, one question asked about a specific lecture, and I just had no idea, but I remembered the speaker talking about Pink Floyd and "Dark Side of the Moon" in the lecture, so I wrote 2 BS pages about the meaning and the time period, and my favorite songs, and then I listed a few other albums and talked about them too. Got half credit as opposed to a 0 on that question.

Careful with drinking all these energy drinks. My buddy did that for a few days and had to go to the hospital.

Maybe I'm strange, but energy drinks don't work for me. I drank a RedBull the morning of my finals and it did seem to help me stay more attentive throughout the day through the mental strain, but it didn't make me jittery, blitzed, or whatever else.
