We are now focusing on high school and college school students (as opposed to all sufferers of ADHD) in an academic setting.

Scenario

Robby is a high school junior who has been taking medication for his ADHD for the past three years. He’s noticed his grades dropping recently, and he’s starting to realize that it’s because he has trouble focusing on his homework. Specifically, when he’s assigned to read short stories for his English class or news articles for his Economics class, he can’t help but get distracted as soon as he starts reading. Sometimes, he loses focus and forgets the task at hand. The articles are usually online, and it’s very easy for him to open up a new tab and start browsing Imgur.com, his favorite website. Even though he knows he should be doing the reading, he ends up wasting a lot of time going back and forth between the article and other websites, and the small bits of the article that he actually reads, he struggles to comprehend well. He usually ends up getting frustrated and stops reading altogether -- in fact, for the past semester, he hasn’t even attempted to read any of the long reading assignments for school.
