[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm asking because our 3yo DS was just diagnosed with autism. While part of me is worried that he won't fit in socially when he goes to school, another part of me is relieved that he will undoubtedly excel effortlessly, as autism tends to come with academic giftedness. He'll probably graduate high school in the top 1% of his class and go to a T20 college. I know I can't change the fact that he has autism, but I still can't help wondering if his academic and financial success will make his social challenges worth-it.[/quote] Maybe he will be smart enough to tell you that one does not graduate an educational institution but one is graduated from an educational institution.[/quote] The way it is commonly said in the US is that someone graduated from an educational institution. "Lauren graduated from Stanford." No "is" included. [/quote]
