[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Maybe I'm just dumb, but I have a hard time understanding really boring, complicated material, which made up most of my legal studies. [/quote]

I'm a lawyer who sort of likes things that are boring and complicated, but I don't think it is reasonable to characterize all law as consisting of such matters.  There are lots of practice areas (family law etc.) that are more interesting and understandable, if less lucrative.  [/quote]

OP here.  Thanks for your insight about this.  Am I just dumb?  I graduated with honors from high school and went to an Ivy League college and graduated with honors from there.  But honestly I have an incredibly difficult time understanding things that are boring and complicated.  What do you like about boring or complicated things?  I can't concentrate and zone out when I am reading such things.  For instance, health insurance.  I cannot seem to understand my health insurance policy or how the benefits work, and whenever I call the health insurance company to ask a question I don't understand what they are telling me.  So my husband handles this.  Investments are another area that I don't understand, and I also find it boring and complicated.  I'm a fully functioning person otherwise, but boring or complicated things are very hard for me to understand.  Do I have some sort of learning disability?

FWIW, I took organic chemistry in college and got an A, so I am capable of understanding some boring and complicated material.[/quote]
