Is it possible to have ADHD and make good grades?

Answer by  somerset (801)

Yes, I think the most important thing is to figure out how to learn. What is the best method. And maybe parents play the biggest role in it, by observing, and exposing the child to different environments.

A person with ADHD can make good grades and can enjoy school with the right teacher and with the correct motivation. ADHD is not lack of intelligence. It requires patience to find the correct method for being able to think without the ADHD interfering. A good teacher and a counselor can help you findthe pattern that will work for you.

Yes. I used to be a teacher, and ADHD is only a hindrance to good grades if student, parents, or teacher thinks that it is.

Yes, It is possible; however the student has to be very interested in the subject he or she is studying. If they have a passion, sky is the limit.
