I don’t know where you’re based. My answer is based on UK/US where the stammer is a protected characteristic. 1. You NEED to get in touch with your university’s disability service—they’ll back you up, and your lecturer MUST make reasonable adjustments. If they don’t, that’s discrimination, plain and simple. But you’ve got to be registered with disability services. Without that, you’ve got no proof. And honestly? If I were your lecturer, I’d have to question whether you’re telling the truth. students fake things for advantages all the time, and stammering’s easy to mimic or just chalk up to poor prep. With 100+ students to keep track of, I’m notrememberg every face or condition. That disability registration is your solid proof and makes sure you’re not ignored. 2. If you did 70% of a group project, that’s not ideal because group work isn’t meant to be a solo job. Think of it like building a car: one person’s effort isn’t going to match what a whole team can do at the same time. 3. Sounds like you’re struggling with team communication, and that’s something you should’ve flagged way before the deadline. Most lecturers will tell you to sort it out yourselves first, but if your stammer’s the issue, get disability services to step in and talk to them. 4. For job interviews, you can mention your stammer if you want. Worst-case scenario, they don’t hire you, but that’s no different from going in, stammering, and getting rejected anyway. You will land a job eventually. Contact disability services today.Lay out your concerns and get their support. If they brush you off, you shall prepare to get famous because that will be a big scandal
