And while most of the on- screen quarrels have stemmed from trivial matters, one cast member has been dealing with a legal battle of his own Health & Wellness that seems to have touched the hearts of many viewers—especially those with disabilities. Mobility Our Podcasts Relationships Speakers Bureau PDFmyURL.com Travel and Recreation On an episode that aired a few weeks ago, Albie Manzo, the 23- year- old son of housewife Caroline Manzo, spoke about his learning disability and tearfully informed his mother that he had been dismissed from law school due to his FAQ performance. However, “I didn’t receive any accommodations while I was there, and it put me in the position I am in now,” Albie Manzo said, adding that he believes things would have been different if he had received the What is New accommodations he requested. Useful Websites Prior to attending law school, Manzo never had any issues with getting the accommodations he needed. “With a Issue X | Sexuality Without Excuses learning disability, you get classified. I was classified when I was 12; it was in junior high school. You go through a series of tests with a variety of different doctors and specialists in the field,” he said. Talking with the Stars According to Manzo, he has what he refers to as a processing disability. “It’s a neurological processing disorder. So Service Dogs when you read something, your brain kind of connects the dots for you. So it goes from reading to understanding. Mine doesn’t exactly do that. It’ll take the information that I just took and bounce it around a little bit until it gets to the DISABILIT Y RESOURCES point where I can actually absorb it and compute it and understand it. So it takes me a little longer than the average individual to complete the task, which in college is okay. If it takes me three times longer, I figure, alright, I’ll just work three times harder and I’ll get through it.” And he did get through it, thanks to the accommodations the schools and even Fordham University in New York made for him. Prior to college, “if you’re classified (with a learning disability), you become entitled to certain accommodations. For instance, it’s basically Special Education. I was in all Special Education classes for the most part,” Manzo said. In terms of accommodations, “you get extra time on exams. You get handwritten notes from somebody else. You get...probably a lot of extra time on homework assignments. If there is a paper due on Monday and I just can’t get it done, they would let me do it on Wednesday or Tuesday. This was in high school. In college, it was the same type of thing.” At Fordham, “I was enrolled with the Office of Disability Services,” Manzo added. “They would afford me those same accommodations.” LEAT HER BAGS But Seton Hall Law School was a different story, he says. “When I had applied to the law school…my college Fordham had written them a letter saying that I was registered with their Office (of Disability Services). I wrote an addendum to my application, a page long, stating I had this problem and that I’ve had accommodations since junior high school. And, also, they sent I think 40 to 50 pages of my IEP (Individualized Education Program) over.” However, Manzo never received the accommodations that were requested and says that was why his performance suffered, thereby leading to his dismissal. Get $50 Cash Back Bonus with the Discover® More Card! “When I had not done so well the first semester, I was placed on academic probation. I had a meeting with the Dean and I explained to him my situation again. And basically what happened was, I was told, ‘Yeah, you should really get accommodations; you should really get accommodations; call this phone number.’ They give me a phone number to call and I had called them. There was nobody there.” Realizing he had hit a dead end, Manzo decided to try another route. “I wasn’t really getting anywhere with the PDFmyURL.com accommodations side of things, and I decided to go the medical route and I went with the prescription Adderall, which was a kind of tough decision for me because I don’t really like the idea,” he said, noting, “The side effects of something like that to me are just not very appealing. I am not an advocate against it believe it or not. It worked tremendously. It was like I didn’t even have a problem anymore because there was just no fatigue associated with BEST T OYS having to read (material) over and over again and you kind of get excited. It’s just like you have this new lease on life almost—(like) this problem isn’t there (and) I can keep up with everybody. It was a pretty good move.” However, Manzo did experience adverse side effects while taking the medicine. “I…lost 20 pounds. I was grinding my teeth together so hard I started to have to wear my retainer again; my teeth separated. It was like a mess. I wasn’t eating at all—period.” Even as Manzo struggled with the side effects, he continued to appreciate the benefits. “Hard work…was something we had hammered into our lives as young kids. My father, I’ve never seen him work a day less than 12 to 16 hours, and I’m not really afraid of (working hard). So, when I’m (at school and) I’m taking this drug…and things are going well, I want to cover as much as I can cover. So I was in the library. I was locked in my room. I didn’t see anybody. I lost friends. I lost a girlfriend. I lost everything and narrowly missed (the cutoff). And that was that.” Also, what many people don’t know is that “law school is one test,” Manzo explained. “You go through the semester and you take all the information you received over the course of that year and you get tested on it one time. It’s a ACCOUNT LOGIN final exam and that’s it. And my grades are not a representation of how well I understood the material over the course of that semester. It’s how well I understood it in relation to my peers because of the curve. So, you can get Username an 84 on a test and be the lowest grade in the class and you get an F for knowing 84 percent of your material.” “With a person with a processing problem, such as myself, where it only really affects you in relationship to other Password people, when you’re tested against those people, it comes back to bite you pretty hard and that’s really what this challenge was and I narrowly missed it, but I missed it.” Remember Me Manzo also admits that things might have turned out better if he started taking Adderall sooner. “To be honest with Log In you, if I had taken Adderall in the beginning of my first semester, we probably wouldn’t be on the phone right now.” Forgot your password? Yet, he also questions whether it would have been worth enduring the side effects. “It’s great being able to Forgot your username? accomplish what you want to accomplish, but sometimes you look back and say, ‘At what cost?’ You look in the mirror and, first of all, you have this big time attitude. You don’t want to talk to anybody. It’s the Mr. Hyde part of your UNIFORMS GALORE day. But at the same time, you know you’re accomplishing a lot and you’re doing what you need to do. So you kind of overlook those things.” At this point, Manzo is focused on rectifying the problem at- hand. “It’s just been challenging to right the ship, so to speak,” he said. On a more recent episode of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, Manzo’s attorney managed to help him obtain a letter from Seton Hall stating that he could immediately apply to other law schools—a small victory since students PDFmyURL.com who are released from law school must wait two years before they can retake the LSAT and apply for admission elsewhere. Although he cannot reveal what his situation is currently, Manzo said he has already learned a lot from this experience. “I think what it comes down to is when we go through anything that is a challenging experience, you learn a lot about yourself and you grow and it makes you a different type of a person. I said it on the show, the hardest part of this entire thing is you lose your identity. I for a long time was ‘Albie Manzo, law student.’ It’s something I’m very proud of.
