Is it recommended to take adderall before a case interview?

That would be a question for whomever prescribed it to you, not for randos on Fishbowl.

Depending on how it impacts you. Personally it makes me worse at communicating with others so would be no go for me

This^
Your brain is supposed to make you great at case interview. On the other hand, I have had horrible client meetings on stimulants because I lost my ability to listen and adapt (was in hyper focus mode instead).

Agree with D1 and M1. You have to know what impact it has on you, so use your best judgement. If you’re that concerned about it still then you should talk to your doc first to get their input.
Me personally, I wouldn’t talk to anyone at work or client without it. I need that stuff to keep me from just bursting into song because I’m bored with whatever I’m supposed to focus on 🤪

Hell yeah. It helps with both my nerves and my focus.
