So, Canadians don't believe in AdHd either?*

*note: I believe it. But, many North Americans of U.S. citizenship do not. Thus, I specified it as Canadians, in general, don't believe in it, in phrasing the question, and just as Americans do not, in point of fact.

does your uni have a learning assistance center? I had to go to one and get tested for proof of having an LD.

thanks guys. no, they dont lambchop. and i had been on probation before, and i told them i had a learning disability so they knew about it. the nwt's student financial assistance, which gives grants and forgivable loans to nwt citizens (pretty sweet, if i do say so myself) also would continue funding my schooling even with the subpar marks because of my disability. this whole disability thing always frustrates me because the story is that i was tested back in grade 7, but my parents had to fight to get the results back because for some reason they wouldnt give them back. we finally got them when i was in grade 12, where they pretty much just gave them to us without any explanation or recomendations. so, since then ive been trying to deal with it on my own the best i can, and things dont seem to be getting better. anyway, enough with the venting.

Just go to a private school where they don't ask questions as long as you pay your tuition.

Is there any way you can go to a specialist?

C'mon. There is no such thing as a 'learning disability.' Quit leaning on the crutch, crutch-leaner.

Sounds like you may have a discrimination lawsuit, if you're so inclined to go that way.
