Nutmeg, I have a younger sister who is very bright and incredibly argumentative. As far as I can tell, she doesn't have a LD. I do. Yet, it was me who usually scored 99 percentile and was eventually doubled skipped because we moved a lot and I got placed based on math assessment results. Her husband who is the sweetest guy in the world thinks her IQ must be sky high but I actually think it's within the average range based on her academic history. .

My point is, I think there are some people like my sister who is very intelligent but does relatively poorly in school and on IQ tests.
