Answered, thanks!
legit. write 'er up.
With that big of a point jump I would write one.
Thanks, I appreciate the responses. I just don’t want to give the admissions committee more to read, so I only wanted to submit something useful.
one concern i have about your reasoning is that basically you’re saying you didn’t work on it before but then you worked on it so then you received a higher score. See what I mean? You’re saying you didn’t do as well basically because you didn’t prepare for it before. Hmm, you might have to word it a little more carefully.
Thats a good point above…You want to make sure it doesn’t come off that way. Maybe mention that after taking it the first time you had a better idea of the specific areas your dyslexia made challenging in real test situations. That make sense?
Fair point- I’ve inserted this into the middle of it:
“After taking the exam for the first time, I was able to better understand what areas were challenging to me. In preparing for the October exam I worked daily to correct my mistakes by extensively practicing diagramming and reviewing conditional clauses, so that I would no longer inverse them. I also began to bubble all questions and practice exams I took.”
I go on to say that I believe that therefore, my October score is more indicative of my abilities.
