I am going to be a freshman in the fall at an SEC school and I plan on going through rush but I have a question first. I have read a lot about how important it is to have a strong GPA in order to be successful through rush. My GPA is below 2.5 (pathetic, I know) and I also have ADD. On the website listed below, it says that if you have a learning disability I can send a letter from my physician stating my condition (if you want to call it that). I was curious if having this letter will basically void out the fact that I have a low GPA or just help my cause? I just don't want to go into this thing thinking that because I have a letter from my doctor I will be on a level playing field, you know? Also, I understand that many people will call this an excuse and I was wondering if I will be looked down upon or anything for it?
