I loved this book. Large print, small sections of reading, and great ideas. It's already been a lifesaver!

I absolutely love this book

I absolutely love this book and highly recommended especially if you are newly diagnosed or new to post-secondary education. The book is actually more of a quick reference guide, the type you can carry around with you, and use on an as need basis. I myself keep it handy, and whenever a question, problem, or concern comes up related to ADHD and school I just pick it up and flip to the relevant section. This book is not intended to be an exhaustive analysis of the ADHD post-secondary situation, but more of a pithy and portable help manual. I definitely recommend purchasing this book, even if it means giving up and evening of beer and pizza in order to afford the book, as it's well worth it.
