I am a full time college student at age 34. I am taking 15 credits. My first time through college took me 4 1/2 years for a 2 year degree. I was always nervous and forgetful. I didn't know I had ADD. So now I am paying attention to what bothers me. here is what I have noticed:
1- Other students who make noise by talking and digging around in their stuff or coming in late
2- I am unable to recall information quick enough to write down during quiz/exams.
3- I have a hard time expressing what I want to say
4- I am also guilty of impulsive responses in class
5- I rub people the wrong way, that is one way I can describe that i am being perceived incorrectly. One professor said I was "a know it all" If I knew it all why would I be in college? Needless to say i am dropping that class, primarily because I just found out it isn't required for my degree.
I hope you find something useful in this. Adrienne
