[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 565587"] Confuzzled I think you're probably right on the nail (provided she can even remember what she read in the first place on the socks). She doesn't do well on the critical thinking or open ended stuff. Spit out stuff on a multiple choice? That she could maybe manage. If she wants to. And read it. And liked it. And doesn't feel too pressured. Maybe. And yes isis, Aspies are very good at [I]sounding[/I] more competent than they truly are - they can give you nice monologues in scientific detail but understanding complex directions in verbal form is beyond them. Giving them step by step (and don't leave anything out, even common sense stuff!) directions in written form is often the best way for them. Break it down in easy to bite off portions if they seem overwhelmed by the whole thing. [/QUOTE]
