"I don't prefer either. Coffee upsets my stomach, and alcohol makes me feel terrible. I prefer kombucha over beer and prefer hydration and solid exercise. Spirulina and coconut water are more my vibe. If I need to mindlessly destress, I'll watch a Marvel movie or some Harry Potter stuff for an escape. I'm not a fan of dependency."

This question examines your habits, the value you place on your health, and your mental clarity. As they state on their website under prerequisites for their program, "Students whose performance or judgment is impaired by prescribed or illicit medications, abuse of alcohol or other substances and who cannot meet the technical standards are not suitable candidates for admission, promotion, or graduation."
