Topic: My test results in math came back...
Catherine !TGirlYJKXM started this discussion 8 years ago #71,652
I have no problems performing complex calculations, but trouble with simple mathematics. I love it whenever characters or people who are brilliant have difficulties in something simplistic. It's like that Einstein shoelace rumor. Genius yet simple things like tying shoes or remembering birthdays that he has trouble with.

Did you just call yourself brilliant?
did you just call yourself brilliant because you have trouble with simple math?

Yeah, that's why I said I could work out complex math problems. I was using Einstein as an example of someone who can work out complex scenarios yet has trouble with simpler tasks. Keep up.

There is one test result that I really remain skeptical about and that is that my spelling, as well as grammar, came out to be a non-issue. So much so that the spell checker accommodation wasn't needed even though it wasn't removed, thankfully. I think most of my time writing has been reliant on a spelling/grammar checker. Even when writing this post I am using Grammarly. That is the only result that I question.

Missing the point. The analogy was that Einstein, a genius, couldn't do simple tasks like remembering birthdays or tying his shoelaces.

I never claimed to be Einstein or even a genius of that caliber since that is a ridiculous claim to make. But Einstein is a good example of someone who is gifted in something yet have difficulty in other more simple tasks. Shit, after looking more about this shoelace rumor, I found out that he was born with an enormous head and people thought he was retarded. But I'm not going to be baited by you anymore since there is a clear miscommunication occurring.

That might be an interesting scenario. This probably wouldn't damper what he accomplished but his IQ would certainly be below average since that would be the range where conditions such as mental retardation or down's syndrome would be ranked in.

Wrong about what exactly? You made a statement that I compared me to something. I replied back informing you what I meant. Sure, maybe it wasn't entirely clear what I wrote, but I never made a comparison nor was the intention there. The only comparison there would have been the analogy and in hindsight, maybe Achilles would have worked better. Yet your posts here read as if they are hostile.

I presume Algebra and levels up. Which seems fair. It didn't specify. Word Problems was my middle strength which surprises me while basic arithmetic remained my weakness. To remedy this an accommodation that was put down for me was to allow me to use scratch paper.
I think it's just multiplication and long division. I know how to add or subtract.

That's not how it works. In order to qualify for a learning disability, you have to be average or above average intelligence. If you are below average intelligence then you're entering grounds for other disabilities like Down Syndrome or Mental Retardation.

Well you hit just about every mark in the list of possible affected abilities.
In the United States and Canada, the terms learning disability and learning disorder (LD) refer to a group of disorders that affect a broad range of academic and functional skills including the ability to speak, listen, read, write, spell, reason, organize information, and do math. A person's IQ must be within the average range or above to have a learning disability or learning disorder.

Dyslexia, Dyscalculia, and Dysgraphia all fall under learning disabilities. There is more than one specific learning disability. But those who qualify as having an LD tend to have some qualities of one of those even if they aren't diagnosed with it.

Nah, I don't hit every mark, mostly just within reading and math. I am honestly quite intrigued by the math results since it more or less came out to be my ability to perform advanced problems to be around the average range yet I still have difficulties with the simplest arithmetic. Even then I still know how to divide and multiply, but I haven't really memorized all of my times tables or have to result to finger tricks. Mental math is mostly my trouble area. I love that Achilles heel trope and never thought it would apply here.

lol Yeah, it doesn't make sense to only leave behind four apples if you already went through the trouble of eating twelve of them.
I do, however, question who in their right mind would try to eat sixteen apples at once. This is working under the assumption that this scenario the person with said apples were to eat them in one seating. I do question the health risks of eating that many apples as well.
