<p>Allright, I'm in a bit of a mess. It has been my dream for ages to study neuroscience and psychology at a university. Well, today I took the ACT test, I was pretty well studied up for it but I just got incredibly anxious and didn't sleep at all three nights in a row before the test (I have really severe insomnia). I just couldn't focus, remember details, or get myself to work at a reasonable pace enspecially of the reading comprehension section (this is terrible b/c English is my best subject) and I'm pretty sure I got a pretty low score (wouldn't be surprized if it were 17 or 18). I'm really terrified because I fear this may be the end of my dream as I can't afford to take the test again. Based on my other details, do you guys think I still have a chance at neuroscience? Also, I have Tourette Syndrome and pretty bad insomnia would it hurt my chances of getting into a university if I were to apply for accomodations? What can I do to increase my chances? Would more volunteer activities help? Here's my other details</p>
