Larynxa, I found what you wrote about math very intersting and it just reminded me of my own troubles. I always thought I was just bad at math??? I have this weird ability to do advanced stuff (like math) but have no concept of the basics. This worked great for a while but once I hit high school I just couldn’t keep up.

I’d like to think of myself as intelligent but for some reason I can’t write an essay to save my life. When considering Univ. I almost went with psychology because someone told me all the exams were multiple choice, now that I can do!

I remember am exam in college where I wasn’t sure how to answer the question so i basically wrote down everything I knew on the subject, regardless of whether or not it pertained to the question in the hopes that the prof would see that i had studied. I think it comes down to memory vs applied knowledge.
