Hello! My sons supplemental ADHD neuro psych assessment is next week. He has been doing all sorts of brain games, etc to try and get ready. Apparently he scored “below the FAA required score” on 8 assessments in his original testing. I can tell he is nervous (and so are we for him!). We have had him going to bed at a decent hour, limiting screen time, and keeping him active as well. Any tips of the trade so he can be as ready as he can be that you can share?

Also, this process is insane. Lol! I think the FAA knows more about him than his father and I do!

Thanks all!!

Hello! My son was accepted into flight school at a university. He has very mild ADHD. This whole process has been so nerve wracking and frustrating. Since we have no clue about FAA medicals and the procedures for getting his first class medical, we have been learning as we go.

My son had his neuropsychological assessment recently with a HIMS neuropsychologist. We just got an email from the doctor saying he needs some supplemental testing. We are concerned about this and what it implies.

Have any of you had this experience? If so, why did you need the additional testing and what was the outcome?

I want to thank everyone here so much!
