BCP and concentration

Hi, I was planning on starting birth control pills soon for the first time, but i'm worried that one of the side effects as my body gets used to them will be lack of concentration and forgetfulness. Is this a common side effect? I've heard of it happening but wasn't sure. Does anyone have experience with this? I'm asking because I have final exams all through April, and doing well on these are waaaaay more important than sex!!!

Lack of ability to concentrate is not a common side effect at all.
