Because of timing of when the counselor’s letter was written – before we had made our decision about disclosing LD – our guidance counselor letter did not mention the LD. She left it to my son to describe his LD in his additional personal statement.

One teacher’s letter spent a paragraph on his LD and it discussed the successful accommodations used in high school. Another teacher recommendation never mentioned it, the teacher used his standard letter for his AP students.
