[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I too stress out when I read DCUMs or website stories like on college data.  Those kids appear to have it all together - outgoing personality - drive - clear path etc...

DD is shy and although entering 9th grade in September, will probably have a low 3.X GPA based on her 6-8th grade grades at her 6-12 grade school.  I worry a lot for her as she has executive functioning, organizational and time management challenges.

Two things she has going for her is that DH and I both have Masters degrees so we know the process and she will not be restricted by cost or financial aid as she won't qualify. [/quote]

My son has similar issues.  We focused his college search on Colleges that Change Lives schools and he will be a freshman at his first-choice college this fall, with a big merit scholarship.

IMO, kids with EF issues are best served by schools with small classes, accessible professors, and accessible tutoring and other one-on-one services.[/quote]
