Congratulations for sticking with it so many times and getting through it That is sad you had professors give up on you. I'm glad you still have confidence in yourself

I think it's just that this brain damage - I guess they believed I had a certain level of capability because I "sound" intelligent - they got frustrated because while concepts made sense, it would sound like they were speaking a foreign languate or like reading the jabberwocky poem to me over and over - just gobbledy-goop. I even had tutors get frustrated and walk out. I realized that I receive information better by reading it and doing it than listening to lectures or have someone tell me how to do something.

It's the way my brain now processes information - difficult for some concepts to be received verbally and "stick" + short term memory damage... Anyways this has been so empowering. thank you so much for this forum. You guys rock :-)
