ADHD/ADD assessment to diagnosis timeline

Did has been displaying a LOT of ADD type symptoms BUT masks a LOT at school. Have got a form from school to start the process of assessment and there's a LOT of boxes I've ticked as they match her behaviour traits. IF she has to have an assessment by a Dr/psychiatrist, she will probably mask so am concerned that she will "fail" the assessment if that makes sense. Can anyone advise? Thanks

The HCPs assessing should be alert to masking, and they should be able to recognise it for what it is.
