I am 18 years old. I took Adderall XR from 7th grade all the way up through high school. It worked wonderfully. I was always more focused on my schoolwork and I didn't feel as tired when I took the pill. My side effects only consisted of this: Extreme loss of appetite (I was usually only hungry once a day). I lost alot of weight while I was using Adderall XR.
