I’m enjoying this string. Fred’s comment reminded me of when I had a psycho-ed reevaluation as an adult. I’d been evaluated ~age 13 and was found to have dyscalculia, an LD. In my 20’s I was applying to graduate programs and in order to get extended time for standardized tests, I need a recent evaluation, so I was reevaluated. At the appointment where we reviewed the findings, the evaluator told me, “You’re GTLD”. I thought for a moment, then replied, “Greater than learning disabled?”
Now I’m wondering if you’ve got multiple diagnoses, which goes first? ADDGTLD? LDGTADD? LDADDGT? Can I add my degrees? GTLDADDPhDMPH? Or MPHPhDADDLDGTADD?
Jeez! Talk about alphabet soup!
