During my freshman year I had a 3.3. The beginning of my sophomore year I was diagnosed with ADHD recognized by college board. Because of this I got the benefit of 1.5x extended time. After that, I went to a 3.6 sophomore year, a 4.4 junior year (3.8 unweighted). If I were to continue this trend senior year, 4.4 weighted and 4.0 unweighted, would putting down an undiagnosed ADHD be a reasonable cause for my freshman year grades? If so, how would I put this into my college app? Thank you in advance.
There should be a section in your app for any notes and you should write it in there. It’s nothing to really worry about though - freshman year is not looked at critically as your junior/senior year.
Talk to your GC about how to include this in your app…i thought the GC may address this in their recommondation
