| My mouth actually dropped open at the idea of a 640 on the Math SAT. 8O That is awesome! I agree that they should give more time too. I remember wasting quite a bit of time on the math part between worrying that I wouldn't have enough time to answer the questions and staring stupidly at problems I ... |

| No, I couldn't. Because by changing myself to an NT I'd be changing so many things about me and my life. I'd be a complete stranger to myself. I am who I am and trying to work on accepting it more. It can be difficult not being an NT but I've always vowed not to follow the crowd. Being different ca... |

| I never had a really good experience in gym class. Gym class for me was always too competitive especially since I have always had and continue to have gross motor and fine motor skill issues. Also changing for me was a problem in middle and high school. |

| This infuriates me as well, tell them that it would be like someone saying everyone has ADD or ADHD which is entirely not true. Yes everyone has difficulty concentrating but the fact remains that that in order to be diagnosed you have to suffer from the symptoms constantly for a extended period of t... |

| My problem with small talk is that I dont understand the purpose behind it, so if someone could explain the purpose behind it that would be great because when I run into something that I do not understand I do not do it.
