[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious how then transition to life works out when suddenly there are no accommodations? DH and I are really struggling with this question, so no offense intended. [/quote] Depends what the issue is. My DC can write great research papers because she has strong writing and analytical skills but when it comes to exams she has trouble with instant recall, with sustained focus, and with the time pressures. So she knows a job that emphasizes instant recall of facts is not going to be a good fit. For what she wants to do she will probably need to work harder and longer than other people, but otherwise shouldn't be at a huge disadvantage. She's also done several internships/summer jobs so has a pretty good sense of what she does and doesn't want to do.[/quote]
