Not necessarily a sign of an LD, just a relative weakness.

Not sure but this is good information to have for your kid. Everyone has different strengths and weaknesses and your kid is getting a window into that. It can help your child to choose a path that makes use of their strengths while not ignoring trying to work on their weaknesses.
