Hi all. I just got my psych results back and would greatly appreciate your thoughts.

I went in thinking I had dyscalculia, and I ended up with a amnestic disorder diagnosis. The psychologist says it's mild, but gave me a list of accommodations I think will really help.

My iq came back average. On the achievement tests, my math was exactly 100, but my reading and writing were in the Very Superior range. My academic fluency was above an 18th grade level along with my reading. My writing was not far behind. In the report I was described as gifted in reading and writing.

Have any of you had any experience with amnestic disorders? If so, how have you coped?

Also, even though my iq is average, would I still be classified as gifted by my reading and writing scores?

Thanks so much.
