If your kid is an avid reader and can do well in history and english, he can get thru.  make sure the school has a learning center for disabled students which can help with things like a notetaker, extra time, etc.  most schools have this now due to the ADA.[/quote]

Community college is a great way to to continue education and test the waters. Prices are more reasonable, and you can take classes that would transfer to a four year degree, or classes that would earn you an associate degrees. There are MANY more jobs requiring associates degrees than there are 4 year degrees. There are so many to choose from, and many are paying very well. Make use of the career counseling center as well and build on strengths and interests. I'm betting reading skills will get your child a long ways in college!

I have a friend who's son barely graduated from high school with much help, pushing and prodding. He was in the top 10% of his class in community college when he could finally study what he was interested in!
