[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I got an 870 in 1993 and got into an Ag/Tech school (SUNY) and then promptly failed out in the first semester (and knew two weeks in I couldn't hack it). I then took a year off before enrolling at community college. I couldn't take more than three classes at a time, max, barely got a D in two, had several classes waived (basically I was allowed to take psych classes as replacements for hard science requirements) and barely got an Associate's.

More schools now have disability offices and support for LDs.[/quote]

what do you do now? do you think with LD accomodations you could have done better?

my BFF in HS was similar to you. Academic family, lovely person, but just could not learn traditionally. I know her parents got her some dyslexia tutoring but it was the 90s and that wasn’t common. she managed to eventually get a LPN certification and I’m sure is now one of those people in medical offices who makes all the difference in your day by being empathetic and kind.

I had a friend kind of like this, lovely sweet person but did not do well in school at all. She did go to college - not an academically demanding one- and she's now a special ed teacher. I'm sure her students adore her. [/quote]
