 Description I found out in the Fall of my senior year in college that I have a learning disability. When I got my SAT scores, people were shocked. I got a 630 on Critical Knowledge. A 610 on Math. And a 650 on writing. How could the girl who had struggled and worked so hard all through high schol and only to get mediocre grades have performed so well? Maybe it's because I had a focus issue -- one that could have been dealt with years ago. Maybe if I'd been diagnosed earlier, I'd have better grades. Maybe I would have made the field hockey and lacrosse teams after my freshman year. Maybe I would have been able to take more than two honors courses at a time and would have earned better, more consistent grades. But I can't play the would have, should have game. I can't blame others for the way my life has turned out so far. All I can do is look forward to building a great life for myself. Knowing that I'm not stupid has given me a renewed sense of self. I have more confidence because I not only was diagnosed with ADD, but I was tested to have a very high IQ. Who knew? Maybe now I'll have the confidence to join clubs and take more challenging course work. In the little bit of research I've done since being diagnosed, I've found out that some of the most successful, creative people have ADD. We're risk takers, creative entrepreneurs, we can juggle a myriad of challending tasks at once. Maybe ADD is the best thing that could have ever happened to me. I got to see what it was like to be the underdog. I've had to overcome incredible odds even to accomplish what I have -- volunteering with animals, and helping the poor in inner city Los Angeles. Maybe I wouldn't have done these things if I had smooth sailing academically. All I know now is that college is going to be the best four years of my life. I'm going to make it so. Because now I'm armed with the knowledge that I have a slightly different way of learning and that I'm just as intelligent if not more than everyone in my class. My inferiority complex has now shifted to a superior complex.
