Dear Group,

I am a senior in college who has performed average overall, since I
have only earned about a 3.4 academically. I tend to have significant
difficulty with a voice modulation problem, but I am concerned about
letting someone know that I have a disability. I am unable to
visually or auditorally process information, thus it is pretty much a
visual and auditory agnosia. I am a very good writer and can get the
interview, but how do I best shine over other candidates, despite the
disorder? Is researching the company enough? Will having a masters
degree be enough or will I be overqualified? I have ADHD and take
Adderall in which I am really a focused writer. I sometimes get very
upset when it is attributable to my ADHD. I have been diagnosed with
a nonverbal learning disorder when I was nine. There were many
explainations of why I do not have ataxic CP, but all of these
reasons have long since been disproven (over 15 years ago). I am
doing well academically and am basically trying to take courses,
while I get to be more mature. I think my 29 year old friend from
Somolia is very helpful in helping me achieve this goal.

I guess I best demonstrate myself, despite my disability by stating
that I am graduating from college even though I am not yet of
drinking age. I guess that makes me feel better about myself, despite
my disability. I guess I could do better with school if I had less
pride and more shame, since my cumulative averge is largely due to
the very poor 2.5625 performance last semester (1A- and 2Cs). I had a
3.6 at my community college and am barely maintaining a 3.2 at the
university.

Please help. Now recognizing that grades are not everything, how do I
best prepare for being one of the most competitive applicants despite
having a disability? I am a prospective accountant who would like to
become a Certified Public Accountant. I have taken five legal
courses, and have received a B-, C+, 2A-s and one yet to be
determined. Is it best to try to go for a master's degree while
working at small menial jobs and try to find work at an accounting
firm while not declaring that I obtained the first masters degree
(M.S. in Accounting) while going for a second one (M.B.A. in
Accounting) or law school (J.D. in Taxation law). Because I do not
see myself having a large probability of passing the bar exam, I am
considering to take courses at my own expense at an inexpensive law
school that costs approximately $20,000 a year, including summers.
This is "inexpensive" for a law school. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Sincerely,


Nathan
