WHY would a fourteen year old have such a poor short term memory? Any ideas?

[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 384644, member: 3444"] Does she do better with one type of test over another (multiple choice vs. essay or short answer)? Could some of it be test anxiety -- the added pressure to perform under time limits? Is there too much going on in the classroom during the test, or too many people? Does she get overwhelmed by too much information on the page (chunking the test might help)? Besides these kinds of accommodations, we also use Namenda for difficult child 2 and it seems to have helped his memory issues enough to merit keeping it on board. He still has issues forgetting, but he is MUCH better overall. I would call the neuropsychologist office once or twice a week to ask about cancellations and be as squeaky a wheel as you can. Hope you get some answers soon! [/QUOTE]
