Underachievers have many reasons (or excuses) for not working up to their full potential. Some of them are easy to identify in the classroom. However, there is a little-recognized group of hidden underachievers, who are easy to miss because they hide in plain sight.

    Very useful information.

  2. Ida – LOS FRESNOS CISD (verified owner) –

    It was a good course. My question is with my daughter being recently diagnosed with ADHD and autism, how many of these underachievers are children that have not been diagnosed. I saw my daughter several times want to do things but it’s like something kept her from doing it and when I went in to push her to get things done, it was a fight with her thinking she was such a bad daughter and that was far from what I wanted her think, I just wanted her to do her work sooner rather than later.
