[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our DS is a great kid, but middle of the road student at a top area private. Works hard and is intellectually curious, but his ADHD impacts his focus and has resulted in a highschool report card with a few As, many B+s, and 1 or 2 Cs. He's strong in the humanities with a penchant for art. Any suggestions of colleges we should keep on our "must see" list? We truly don't care about the "name brand" but rather want to focus on finding the right fit where he can really flourish.[/quote] Some ADHD kids do best when they can focus on the areas in which they are strong. You might consider a technical school with a strong art program, like Drexel or RIT. Your DS can take the courses they want there, and avoid the ones where he is weak. Also, they tend to have a more hands-on approach that works well for kids with ADHD. Technical schools are not only for science/math types.[/quote]
