[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most do not understand twice exceptional people, OP. We were told that my son, born with a global developmental delay, wouldn't walk or talk until very late and would probably not be mainstreamed. He was not supposed to be smart. Yet he was able to do a dozen APs and have a 4.67 weighted GPA. He was diagnosed with a learning disability in math, but made it to AP Calculus BC and got a 35 on his ACT. Now he's doing well in college. [/quote] DS was similar. He went through speech therapy and heavy development delay. He is now junior with similar GPA and got 1600 in his first SAT test. He was told by others that he should not include those background in his essay because it could place him in disadvantage. Is that true? [/quote]
