[quote=Anonymous]This doesn’t sound bad at all. My kid had brain cancer so she gets regular neuropsych exams. Mild inattentive ADHD. Processing speed 5th percentile. Inability to memorize symbols (aka cannot learn math facts). Spatial reasoning is an issue. IQ in the 104-112 range. She just got straight As in first quarter of sixth grade that included advanced math (not accelerated, just advanced sixth grade math) and she is in Spanish immersion so two classes in Spanish. Balance and fine motor isn’t great. Makes no real impact in day to day life. But her table manners are a challenge, because she still does a terrible Job of cutting her own meat. She doesn’t even have accommodations in school at this point. Her school pretty much seems to have implemented ADHD strategies for all — so they have a planner, you can ask for more time on math tests. I help her stay on track at home some. She is a great kid and will do great in life, but isn’t going to go to MIT.[/quote]
