This is the same paper that we see her get back in this scene, in which we can see this was a large essay too.
There's nothing rushed to her handwriting, this was not an essay done at the last minute, and still, it shows several signs of a learning disability and/or dysgraphia.
Misspells her name in the second line
Wrong and inconsistent pronoun usage
Her margin spacing is consistent with someone who can't do proper syllable division
Immature transcription (see: writes her "um"s)
Limited vocabulary
Shows signs of: difficulty expressing ideas in writing, having a limited vocabulary, mispronouncing words or using a wrong word that sounds similar, and having trouble organizing what she wants to say. Those are all symptoms of a learning disability.
Less of a checklist sign, but her handwriting is very round and careful, while still not being consistently sized (see unfashionable). This and the margin sizes are very common in kids with bad dysgraphia who are made to take rigorous calligraphy courses to "fix the problem". Courses that work on the visual without remedying its underlying issues and causes. Form over content if you will.
Looking at this very blatant sign that she has a learning disability and immediately defaulting to calling her names (yes calling her stupid and saying Elphaba is a moronsexual for this counts), asking how she got into Shiz, or defending Dillamond in doing the very first thing teachers are told NOT to do with disabled students (re: calling attention to it in front of the entire class) is ableist!
The internet: “Glinda should’ve gotten on the broom!”
Ariana Grande: “First of all, I would’ve died, immediately. I would’ve fallen off the broom. I would’ve been off the broom, dead, instantly.”
"Where is Elphaba now? 🌸💚
lolol big angst piece in a way- this whole thing is inspired by a question Cynthia was asked during a interview- so in a way it's a big fat reference lol

Tim couldn't make it he was in Paris also not in the group chat
It’s so funny to imagine Wicked from the perspective of one of the normal students at Shiz. There’s this girl and she’s weird and an overachieving nerd and no one likes her, but then the popular girl becomes best friends with her overnight so you guess she’s chill now. They might be sleeping together but no one’s really sure. They’re also low key dating the same guy but you’re not clear on if it’s a polycule situation or a love triangle. Whatever. You’re just trying to study for finals. Your history teacher gets arrested and no explains why. You just hope this won’t effect your grade in the class. The weird nerdy girl gets a letter from the president inviting her to come see him. Wow, that’s exciting. She and her maybe-girlfriend go off to the capitol and you go back to homework and dorm room parties. One day later one of your professors is on the national radio saying that the weird nerdy girl, who used to be her favorite student, is now a terrorist, has stolen the nuclear codes, and is on the run from the government. You are still expected to show up to class tomorrow.
Warriors is a military-horror novel series by Erin Hunter that chronicles the past and present stories of a militaristic division of sentient cats called The Clans as they indulge the minds of themselves and future generation's in the various beliefs of war, jingoism, religious law, xenophobia, an "Us vs Them" mentality, and intimidation of "the others". With topics of fascism and colonialism addressed, Warriors details the horrors of how such beliefs warp the mind into believing ideas of things such as "Good War" directly from the indoctrinated, twisted perspectives of The Clans.
