Law School Interview Tomorrow Hello. First time to post publicly about my stuttering. Had this issue since I was a child and was only recently diagnosed. I'll be having my interview tomorrow for my law school application via Zoom and I'm not sure if I'll disclose my stuttering to them. Words get blocked and I am unable to say specific words and or sentences. I honestly do not know what to do, all I know is that despite this issue of mine, I want to become a lawyer. I know I'll prolly be given respect and consideration but I also know that it can affect my law school application. I've also tried many things to keep it on a low when meeting new people or when on Zoom but it still persist. Some say that I just need to accept it, while others say that one shouldn't be pessimist about it but proactive in an individuals capacity to change. I'm a graduate of psychology btw, so I know a little bit about the limits of our brains. Been also reading some posts here and all I can say is thank you to everyone, I appreciate you all.
