In University I gave up trying to take notes (besides having ADHD, I also have an LD that messes with my graphomotor skills) and would just sit and listen carefully to the lecture. I realize now that I was hyperfocusing on it.

Fortunately, I have an excellent memory for things I hear and read, so between reading the textbook, and remembering what was said in lectures, I could do rather well on tests.

My kryptonite was often lab work. I can’t count the number of times I shot nitric acid down the sleeve of my lab coat, when missing the test tube I was trying to clean. ( Fortunately, it was not a very concentrated nitric acid solution.)
