Some students have ADHD or simply learn in a way that does not track with how school and university are taught. The rewards and incentives are typically orthogonal to what a person diagnosed with ADHD wants, and often times extreme measures must be taken to adapt to the rigid expectations.

That is a failure of the system to adapt to the needs of students. I have adult-diagnosed ADHD and school sucked for me too... and I'm on medication now, which makes me function normally, not stay up for a week.
