Midyear illness - add doctors note?

Applying to College
1

<p>Hey all,</p>

<p>I've applied to a bunch of schools, but for the past few weeks I've been frequently ill and I may have diabetes (gettin blood test soon). This has affected my mid year grades (3 C's); should I get a doctors note and attach that to my midyear report? I'm worried that colleges may think I'm trying to get pity, or maybe think that if my illness is affecting me in high school it would also affect me negatively in college. Any thoughts?</p>

<p>don't think you need a doctor's not, but you should most def explain your situation.</p>

<p>oo aright thanks, I was just going to add a doctors note to substantiate it.</p>

<p>It should typically be included in your counselor's write-up.</p>
