[quote=Anonymous]I think you need to consider why you'd be sharing this information, how you think it will affect the thinking of the admissions office. If, for instance, your kid had mediocre grades through high school until he was diagnosed with ADHD and then his grades shot up in the second half of his junior year, I could see disclosing it as a way of explaining why the grades changed so dramatically, and thus why it's reasonable to expect he will continue to perform at that higher level now that his ADHD is being treated. If, in the other hand, your child has always had mediocre grades due to his ADHD and there's no improvement, I wouldn't expect it to help if you disclosed the ADHD, because it doesn't affect the level of academic performance the school could expect from him if admitted.[/quote]
