Worth noting that I struggle with numeracy. When I was first trying to go for jobs after graduation they had psychometric testing which, if i did on my own, would place me below the 50th percentile - I could do the math, i was just very slow.
Did one the other day and scored in the 98th percentile according to a national ranking.
This really does underline the problem I have with anxiety. At work, I can work innovatively and articulately but I've been so afraid of how I looked I could hardly communicate. One of my colleagues met me outside work and freaked because he said I was a natural orator but am silent in the office. I'm hoping that similar to the anxiety with tests the anxiety about speaking, saying 'no', and being intellectually dominated by others dissipates.
