Sorry for posting when Blade said to let the thread die but this post caught my attention.
I have a friend with a moderate form of ADD and she's never resorted to Ritalin, extra time for tests, etc. she had a 3.9 GPA in college, was getting high scores on practice LSATs (hasn't taken it yet due to deciding whether she wants to apply and waiting for hubby to finish med school).
But the point is she does well with work etc. and has learned to work around her limitations and find ways around them without resorting to begging for things like extra time etc.
No need to apologize! Those are all valid points and you provide a great example - those who are able to work around their illnesses are inspirational.
It's those who keep asking for more and more accomodation, despite poor results, that bother me. There comes a time when you have to realize that not everyone "deserves" to be a (insert specialty type here) physician. It's a privilege, not a right. You have to earn it.
