ADHD. They believe that it is probably related to a
combination of biology, genetics, and the student’s

will encounter students who have been diagnosed with
ADHD because “ADHD affects approximately 3-10% of
school-age students” (Powell Driver, 2013, Section 5.1). For

people get intimidated by tests thinking that they are more
than they really are. They are supposed to be a review of
what you have already learned in your class. Having
confidence in yourself and studying well can help you do well
on them....
