I disagree, C) is more appropriate. They need to know about ADA.

I wonder if disclosing too much about the disability could backfire. I feel like option A is the safest bet, but I’m still unsure.

I practiced a question like this, and I think excusing yourself could be seen as avoiding the issue, which might not help the candidate.

I remember a similar question where we discussed the ADA. I feel like option C might be the right choice, but I’m not completely confident.
