An ADD Case Study: What Does it Mean to "Fail"?Written by ADD Management Coach Jennifer Koretsky
© Copyright 2004 Josh is a client of mine who is a junior in college. He's very smart. He's amazingly smart. Talk to Josh for an hour and you'll know how smart he is. But if you don't know Josh and you look at his grades from previous semesters, you would probably guess that he wasn't smart at all. Josh gets frustrated in school. He works hard, but often finds that pressure of test taking overwhelms him, and his grades suffer for it. Recently, Josh had a midterm in his Economics class. He knew it would be tough. He hates this class, but it's required for his Business major. He had one test in class already, which he did not pass. For midterm, there were 3 books to review, and pages upon pages of notes to memorize. But he was determined to get an A. Three weeks prior to test, he began setting aside review time. He highlighted books, and took notes on them. He rewrote his notes to memorize them. And he even formed a study group with some of his classmates. The morning of test, Josh felt good. He had plenty of rest night before, he ate a good breakfast, and he was ready to ace his Economics test. He got to classroom, ready to go, and when test was handed out and he flipped through it, he froze. The test was four pages long, with short answer questions, math problems, and an essay. Even though he had studied so hard, Josh started to doubt himself. He did his best to push past anxiety and overwhelm and finish test. Then he went back to his dorm room and slept. He was physically and emotionally spent. A week went by before Josh got his test back. It was a B. He had studied so hard, he knew material, and yet all he got was a B. He was crushed. "I did best I could, I worked so hard to overcome this test-taking fear, and I failed."
