personal statement issues

<p>should I write about any learning disabilities on my prompt 2? I have a great story on how I overcame my disabilities and transitioned from an under achieving special ed student to an overachieving academic superstar. </p>

<p>However, I'm just worried that they might hold it against me. Any thoughts? I greatly appreciate any input.</p>

<p>I don't know how the adcom would hold it against you. That's a great topic. A bit cliched yet still very appropriate for the topic.</p>

<p>a high school friend of mine wrote about how he overcame his ADHD and became a successful student (which he was). Got him into ucla.</p>

<p>definitely would not hurt you. I think it is a great topic!</p>

<p>Thanks guys, but this happened in high school. So Is it still relavant for transfer students?</p>

<p>Also, is anyone willing to look at my essay? I don't want make it public so I will P.M it to any one willing to look at it. Thanks.</p>
