Hi i'm applying to schools this fall. Had undiagnosed ADHD which led to pretty low grades for my first 2.5 years. I'm taking the LSAT this weekend and am PTing pretty consistently at 160. What schools would I have a chance at in Canada (planning to apply to western, TMU, queens, osgoode, uottawa, tru, ucal, ubc, uvic, ualberta). I have strong EC's and work experience throughout university (law firms + on campus admin jobs). 

 

Thank you!

Hi! I also had undiagnosed ADHD in undergrad, and had a 3.2 CGPA/161 LSAT. I had very strong EC's and letters of reference and I got in at Osgoode and Ottawa! Hope that's reassuring 🙂

It really is! Do you mind if I message you - I just had some questions about the application process!

Hi!! If you don't mind my asking, did you disclose your ADHD in any part of your application?? I've been struggling to decide if I should.

Hi! I didn't because I also had another chronic illness that was more relevant to explaining my grades in undergrad. SO many people at Osgoode have various disabilities (including ADHD) and receive accommodations. I don't think you should be worried that it will reflect poorly on you. Message me if you have any questions about framing it, which is the most important part.
