I would suggest asking for whatever you think would help you on the test. Like if you need it to be untimed or you need someone to help explain the questions...if they really liked you, but then all you did was bomb the test, I bet they'd be willing to help you if you explained your anxiety disorder. Just be careful that you don't describe it in a way that makes them think you can't do the work.

Just an idea if this is a persistent problem.

Good luck!
