[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Just received my son’s scores. They are dismal.  He has ADD  and even with medication his focus and test taking skills are pretty bad. Not sure how to interpret the scores. [/quote]

Our DD has ADD as well -- her scores last year were awful.  I am still waiting for this year's scores.... sigh.[/quote]

My consolation is that I know he’s learning material. He comes home and is excited about school and even though he struggles with subjects, especially math, he  gets pretty good grades. It’s just the test taking that is really bad. So, even though his scores are really bad I try  not to put so much stock in them. At least in his case .[/quote]

I think it's especially difficult for some kids because of the computer interface rather than paper/pencil.  My kids both have ADHD and given how reliant technology is for schools, we focused on getting them familiar with working on the computer.  More importantly, we stress the importance of not putzing when they are online since this is so incredibly easy for most kids to do, especially those who have ADHD.[/quote]
