Dear Andy,
We are not unaccustomed to seeing students with very high WAIS scores but nevertheless having difficulties. If issues arise, they may well do so in the post diagnosis situation, at the level of 'ways round' or through.
Regards,
Penny

Dear Andy,
The child of a Physics lecturer has recently been diagnosed as being dyslexic.
The lecturer herself believes that she might also be dyslexic as she recognises the type of difficulties of her child but managed to develop strategies to compensate. She would like to be assessed by an Ed Psychologist with experience of testing individuals with her profile.
Any ideas who might be suitable. She is ready to travel anywhere in the country.
Thank you,
