[quote=Anonymous]She should get tested for non-verbal learning disability (NVLD). She sounds a lot like me in high school--from the difficulties with standardized exams to the difficulty with high school math. Because people with that LD tend to compensate for any issues they have with their hyper-verbal oral and written communication skills, it is often undetected, particularly if the kid is highly intelligent. But it doesn't just show up in math scores, there are also some peculiar (and often speed related) issues with verbal standardized tests as well. I am not actually bad at math when receiving appropriate accomodations, but it took college level coursework to really reveal that I had an LD and was compensating with hard work.[/quote]
