Postgraduate Disabled Student Adjustments

Hi,

I will be continuing onto an MSc in chemistry which is solely a research master. I am diagnosed with ADHD and I am curious to find if anyone has any recommendations for specialist software/ or items/ tips that I may find beneficial.

I will be spending most of my time in a laboratory and I know I will benefit from a dictaphone which I will use with my current speech to text software. I am reliable and receive disabled students allowance so I am interested to find what other useful materials are available for me.

My ADHD results with me being forgetful and disorganised, which I do manage well on my own but there are some days of which I miss things, hence the dictaphone as I will talk myself through my method as opposed to writing it up afterwards.

All suggestions are very much appreciated.
