    I've personally known someone who has taken Ritalin type meds for 20+ years and did extremely well on it. In addition, my research indicates that tolerance to ADHD meds is uncommon…

    For the writing section, you have to follow an exact structure and use the right amount of words. You can also make stuff up to support your arguments. It's basically "Write a gene…
