[quote=Anonymous]ADHD 20 yo is at UMD and doing great. It took a while to get it together but by 9th grade DC earned good grades, learned to self-advocate and developed good work habits. Took all honors and a few AP and graduated with a good GPA (sort of middle of the pack at our high performing school). Only challenge was getting DC to study for the SAT but the score was ok. Got into all schools applied to, many with merit, but wasn’t aiming for top tier. Once committed to UMD, DC worked with the office of disability services to get appropriate accommodations. DC is successfully employed through a good internship and an A student. I never imagined in middle school that DC would be where they are today. There are some residual challenges but they don’t affect work or school. [/quote]
