Gary,
Yes and no. The functional limitations are the same, but the tasks are often so very different from the school setting to the work setting that the coping strategies may be very different. For example, the problems in maintaining attention and focusing on what is said in casual conversation may have little impact on the student's academic performance, but have LOTS to do with how successfully they interact with co-workers and are seen as contributing members of team projects on the job. I once read a great article called "Keeping Your Job at the Water Cooler: A Guide for the Worker with ADHD!"
