“Disability is a matter of perception."

Today my advisor told me that she believes that I have a learning disability. My COM 230 professor agrees with her. They helped me get an appointment in order to get tested. As of yet, Im not quite sure what to think of this situation. Apparently my advisor and professor had a discussion based on my low test scores in comparison to my high essay scores. They believe that there is something hindering me from more successfully completing multiple choice tests. And again, I am not certain wether I agree or disagree at this point in time. Ive always had a rough time with multiple choice tests, even in high school, however, I have never considered it to be a 'disability.' After my meeting with my advisor, my dad called me, so I told him about the situation, He laughed as if it were a joke. He just doesnt understand. But then again, neither do I.

I guess Ill see what happens after my appointment.
