Can confirm.

I was the typical “well-functioning, kinda smart” ADHD-kid, who got trash grades, to many of my peers surprise.

I was too busy tinkering with electronic music production, which I guess has a similar profile to coding, in regards to instant feedback dopamine hits.

Then I got into javascript at some point.

Last year I actively chose to go back to school to study web development. Top grades now and I am super excited to go to school every day.

Highly recommendable.
