Is this acceptable? A good idea? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I would say that students probably shouldn't have sugar before taking an exam, this may affect their attention span and their overall performance. If you want to do candy, choose something such as chocolates or jolly ranchers, hot tamales may be too hot for most students to handle.
