[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always wonder how the DC will cope after college with those disabilities. I hope somehow it works for them, but I always wonder how they find suitable workplaces…[/quote] I have pretty bad ADHD and anxiety. Went to a highly selective LAC (that was known for harsh grading) and worked at McKinsey. Studied abroad. Lived abroad for work at 24 with no support system at all. I was no genius but I worked hard. Graduated college with a 3.6 I think. ADHD wasn’t diagnosed much especially in girls back in the 90’s which is why I had anxiety. I did just fine without help so I hope kids now can do even better and have less stress with accommodations. Both my kids have ADHD and meds don’t really do much so I do worry. Then I look around at most people who are doing well and they really aren’t that bright so I think it will all work out for my kids (and others) who are smart but have some challenges. [/quote]
