I cannot tell you whether you have it or not but I will say my symptoms got worse as I got older. I was never on medication when I was a child but require it now as an adult. My schooling as a child went a lot like your's. I was actually in the gifted and talented program at school and did quite well unless I was bored by the subject. If I liked a subject it held my attention and if I didn't then I was lucky if I passed it.
I never even thought about the possibility of having ADD until a Pdoc talked to me at length. After talking to me she had me fill out some questionnaires and told me "Yep just as I thought, you have ADD." The difference is when I went home and told my family the Pdoc said I have ADD they were like "Duh! How did you not know that? Talking to you is exhausting. You never follow a thought through and get distracted by everything"
I hope you get things figured out
