Ha, well this author certainly had her thesis and was looking for supporting facts. But I agree with the quoted people at the universities that think that the levels of undiagnosed anxiety and ADHD outstrips rich-people-cheating by 5:1 or so. Public K-12 has become awful in the US and is most definitely causing anxiety at high rates among students. School is nothing like when we were kids.

What makes you say this? Do you think she went into the assignment knowing that the rates of disability diagnosis were quite so high at Brown, Stanford, Amherst, etc.? Or do you think she might have gone in with an open mind, learned the facts, and then formed the thesis of the article?

TLDR: at Stanford, 38% of undergrads are registered as having a disability. At Brown and Harvard, it's over 20%. At Amherst, it's 34%. Although not all of these students receive testing accommodations, researchers say most do.
