Idk how you got down voted for that. I think it's a good piece of information to share and adds to the conversation nicely.

People didn't all do well on the critical reading section of all those standardized tests. I credit learning how to take them as part of why I can't scan read, and often have to double check to make sure I read something right. It could also be all the weed

The fact that you're willing to even be curious about whether you're wrong puts you ahead of average on its own I bet.
