1. I think I’m smarter about things other than reading, writing, and ‘rithmetic—for example, sports, music, or "reading people."
2. When I’m trying to learn something, I don’t like it when someone explains it to me verbally.
3. I sometimes have trouble following directions.
4. I frequently stop paying attention when I’m in a lecture room.
5. I can remember the words to songs, but I have trouble learning people’s names.
6. In high school, I waited until the last couple of days before a test, and then crammed for it.
7. I feel confident about the things I’ve learned outside of school such as music, cooking, sports, or car repair because I have had a lot of practice in those areas, but I don’t know how to transfer that knowledge to school work.
8. I’ve had a learning disability, such as a problem with reading, that I’ve worked on in the past, but I’d just as soon keep this matter to myself now that I’m in college.
9. I’d rather study by myself instead of with other people.
