I also created hundreds of mindmaps and notes during my course and that didnt help either :) [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> Subject: Re: Studying a degree with dyslexia Author: Carol (Carol Summers) [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 06:45:18 02/29/12 Wed Hi Nicki There are lots of students at universities all over the country who have dyslexia (and dyspraxia and ADHD) including Oxford, Cambridge and the OU. The support available to them is designed to 'level the playing field' and includes computers, assistive software and 1:1 specialist support. Not having an assessment shouldn't stop you from applying; some universities may be able to help towards the cost of the diagnostic assessment. Best of luck with your studies!
