    I think you learn more if you enjoy it.

    Kim, I can't tell you whether you have it or you don't, you don't give any insight as to why you think you have it. But, I will tell you what helped me. I did EVERYTHING in colors. Each step in math was a different color.

    I went to class and took notes, then I would go home and re-write my notes in color. All homework was done in color. A tutor was very helpful as well.

    I have dyscalculia as well and when I was a young child in the 50's and 60's it was almost unheard of so I struggled through but it was a battle.
    Now that there is more information,while there is no cure there are ways to help.
    I am giving you a site I think can benefit you.
