>Another big accommodation request is extra time on tests.
Yep. Speaking from experience, top colleges will give students with ADHD or similar conditions as much as double time or more on exams. One college I know of sends them to a disability services office to proctor it, in which they simply don't enforce time limits at all.
Coincidentally, there's an overwhelming number of students with ADHD compared to before these kinds of accommodations became standard.

- halper 11mo agoWell, methamphetamine is very rarely (never?) prescribed for ADHD. Ritalin is methylphenidate.
- noaccesstomy 11mo agoAdderall works on some kind of amphetamine. That‘s prescribed much more often in the states. In EU land I‘ve never seen the hard stuff. Edit: Elvance apparently has Amphetamin in it as well and I‘ve seen it in the wild here too.
- habinero 11mo agoHahahahaha, I wish, but no. That's not how it works. I take Adderall and literally fall asleep because it lets my brain shut down. It _decreases_ my anxiety. I don't get high or hyper off of it, it literally just lets me function enough to do my laundry. It's honestly like wearing glasses.
