If I Told My University I Have Adhd, Would I Get Special Treatment/eased Off Grading?
I’m a junior, and I’m extremely stressed out. I was diagnosed with mild ADHD three years ago and I’m on medication to help me out with it. I only saw the therapist once, and just for a diagnosis. I also think I have anxiety disorder but anyway…
I would like help, especially now because school has become unbearable. Is it possible, if my professors knew I had a mental disability, that they would understand my condition and not grade me as roughly as others? It’s not fair sometimes, because I’m more intelligent than a lot of people in my classes and I don’t do as well as they do. It’s difficult for me to just sit down and write a 4 page paper in a few hours like everyone else. It takes me a very long time to do things, even with medication. It’s frustrating. I don’t want to make excuses, I never did, which is why I never reported my condition to the school. I just want to be treated and graded like anyone else.
