[quote=Anonymous]My DD is autistic. It is who she is and affects every part of her life including where she goes to HS and which classes she chooses to take. It affects her social interactions and her ECs. If she could actually be authentic, as all AOs say they want applicants to be, she would write about because it is who she is. It explains so many of the choices she and we have made regarding school and activities. But they don’t actually want to hear it. She knows that. So she writes about other things and hides her disability because they don’t want to hear it. She is not allowed to be her authentic self or explain why she makes the choices she makes. [/quote]
