[quote=Anonymous] I found that my son's processing speed varies between preferred tasks and non-preferred tasks, and how put-upon, stressed, and sleep-deprived he is. High school was the worst time of his life, because he pushed himself to take a dozen APs, some of which were not in his field of interest, and had great difficulty sustaining the workload. His processing speed has been measured at the 4th percentile! He had double time accommodations. Comparatively speaking, college is easier, because his APs made him jump ahead of some introductory courses and he mostly has courses he has chosen himself in his preferred field of study, which is a game-changer. He is in his third year, and schedule to graduate on time. So I think you need to trust your kid. They might do very well in college.[/quote]
