<p>ee33ee : if you think you have executive function issues you should get diagnosed & documented and contact the student center or learning disability center to give you appropriate support. </p>
<p>My s have executive function issues - his LD is right next to Asperger’s on the spectrum. Like you, he didn’t have too much issues in high school. He was just a bit slow in test taking and not great in Math. I thought he was just “immature”, “being a boy” - What we eventually learn is that he is also gifted, so his strengths compensated for his weaknesses. His deficit is actually quite severe. </p>
<p>In high school executive function deficits does not have as great an impact as in college - college students are expected to take charge and plan and organize much more than high school students. It’s all a part of growing up. Some colleges support centers do not really understand this LD, and do not give appropriate support. My s went from a scholarship student to failing his first year.</p>
