There might well be something else going on with you that you could investigate and address. School should be your first priority. To that end, find out what's preventing you from achieving.

I say this because I have had attention difficulties my entire life (although I was able to hyperfocus on studying and got great grades, because I learned to isolate myself). In hindsight, it would have been helpful had my attention span and distractibility gotten the medical support it needed. Even today I still struggle with impulsivity and focus, but I finally know how to do what needs to be done when it really counts.

A sorority should be pretty far down on your list. That's my opinion.
This is good advice. OP, I saw where you said that you were thinking of having yourself tested. I believe that scheduling the tests can take some time and then you have to wait for the results and an interpretation of the tests, so I would say get on it right away.
