[quote=Anonymous]If he truly knows the material cold and can get an A on a precise test but fail the actual test it has to be anxiety or a version of the yips. If he knows the material cold but can’t show it on tests but can explain it verbally then it is probably a learning disability. Third option (my kid’s situation) is they FEEL like they know it cold but they don’t. They know it enough to do a practice test right after studying or having it explained, but they don’t retain the material like other kids do and it evaporates between studying one day and the test the next. They worked harder than other kids and understood it as well in the moment…but for him that isn’t enough to perform 24 hours later. He has dyslexia.[/quote]
