Join Mark and Anna as they talk with Cindy Palmer from Threshold Coaches about the misconceptions related to ADHD and how college can both be an ideal and challenging environment for students to thrive. We cover strengths of ADHD students and how families can prepare for college, including accommodations and practicing executive function skills. We also cover how students and parents can approach getting  tested and tips for a smooth transition to college.
