Assessment for Underachievment in School
Frequent complaints are:
- ” I can”t concentrate,”
- “I don’t understand the topic and keep re-reading it but it doesn’t help, “
- “I am so tired in class that I keep falling asleep,”
- “The work used to be so easy that I never had to study. Now, I can’t remember details or find a way to apply things I’ve remembered.”
- “I don’t think the teacher is very good and he doesn’t like me.”
- “I am so tired of being picked on and teased, I just want to quit.”
Less Frequently, students keep their complaints to themselves and their grades slip, their mood drops, sometimes they become depressed, rarely but other times, they become explosive.
Psychological Testing can look into the educational complaints, the student’s cognitive and executive functioning and mood and make recommendations for corrective intervention.
