The joys of being a 2E student.
Gifted, with undiagnosed ADHD.
Flew in to university without ever learning how to organise my time. Smashed every exam university put in front of me. Failed every form of written assessment that required time management and planning, instead of just knowing the answers. Even after they put me on academic probation and I understood how serious it was, I couldn't fix it, because I didn't know I had ADHD at the time, and had never learned the organisational skills required, because I'd never needed them to succeed academically before.
Exact same story here. Medication and other coping mechanisms were a godsend
