[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  Thanks for the input. Dx is ADHD, Inattentive Type.  Major processing delay and exec function impairment.  As to why he doesn't need accommodations at school - he does.  But we missed it all these years.  Parenting failure.  [/quote]

Please don’t feel bad. We were in the same boat. Kid’s teachers usually gave unofficial accommodations that we didn’t know about all the time, so no one saw full extent of the issues.

Eventually, the principal helped by granting extensions during the final semester. Kid was forgetting to turn in finished assignments. Typical ADHD behavior!

Our kid took SAT without extra time and the results didn’t reflect their true ability. It did show they do better in English than math but they can do well in math if they have extra time to think.

I hope you can get what your kid needs, OP. If you can’t, things can still work out.

My kid applied TO and got accepted to a good school. They’ve met others with ADHD (didn’t know many in high school) and I think feel more comfortable with their disability.

I think DH and I have it too…
