Where do i go to get tested for learning disabilities?

Question

I'm not quite sure what sort of learning disablities i might have but i know I have some kind. I think i might have slight dyslexia, and maybe some comprehension problems, i can read perfectly fine but i wonder if there is something wrong with my ability to "get it".

for example, i barely passed a computer science 101in a CC. i had trouble with the final exam which was to figure out what the formula would be for a Basics Program. and it's not just this but i seem to have problems in other subjects as well. Which is why i never actually really completed many classes in CC, and hence, never transferred to a four year.

No one would call me stupid by any stretch but i know i definitely have some learning related issues. Where do i go to find out about this? Is there a standard test for this sort of stuff? I really want to take at least one night class per semester at a local CC after work even if it takes me the next twenty years. (i'm 30 right now)

I would love to hear any sugg

Answer 1

Check with your local school board and/or your college office that deals with disabilities. They will know where you can go in your area and direct you accordingly.

Answer 2

I don't think you have a learning disability, it could be just Test Anxiety, I work in Special Ed, our kids go to Child Psychologist through the School Board for testing

Answer 3

I do not think you have dyslexia. For one thing your writing is almost perfect. With dyslexia letters are inverted and spellings are wrong.
Don't know how to help other than to send you to your local Health Dept. They are loaded with resources on learning problems as well as your local community college.
