When writing my personal statement, should I or should I not address that I have narcolepsy? I recently got diagnosed and I have a full year of straight A's to show that my treatment has helped my academic grades immensely and hence proof that I will do fine in medical school.
Before diagnosis, my grades were not what they should be, so I would like to explain somewhere my low GPA score when applying. This is in no way an excuse. It is a true disorder that affected my grades during my early years in college.
However, I do not know where to talk about this. Can I add into my personal statement as long as it flows with the rest of it?
