I went to school without telling them for a semester. I end up dropping. I went to school next semester telling them about my as. I'm going to finish my first semester of school.

ditto what everybody said. If you have problems in a room with 13 kids, then you'll definently have problems with 200+ kids. And tests are important in college. By the way, thank your chem teacher. She must be a big help.

I don't like to have an unfair advantage. I have timed tests, and I beat those other kids brains in. DIE DIE DIE!

I didn't get in. Apparently having a past history of A.S. and depression that affected all your pre diagnosis exam results and employment record, doesn't affect how your application is viewed.

They didn't consider anything else on the form but my exam results, and I'm a mature student, so I'm supposed to be considered on other things too. Because they don't consider anything about my disability relevant to application, and half of my personal statement was about how it has affected me before diagnosis, and how since then I can do much better, all I was left with was half a personal statement in which to make my case.

Discriminated against? Doesn't really matter. I cant do a thing when they have all these policies in place.
