Just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU to you all. When I posted about studying and having difficulties studying, you came in with some good advice that has helped me. I haven't been on the board because I've been studying and trying to get through exams.
I've passed 2 exams already and got one more to go on this course and then 3 years to go after that.
Because I suffer with Dyslexia, I've found Naturally Speaking software absolutely invaluable and would encourage anyone who suffers from my type of dyslexia to use it. I can read extremely well, almost too fast, I have been told that I am intelligent and have a highly analytical brain but my hand won't write out as fast as my brain wants to put something back on paper. So by using speech with a headset, it helps a lot.
I speak into my computer using bullet points, writing approx 2 lines at a time, and then go on to print these out and then put them on my pin board so that I can put them down in sequence; I can see where I'm going wrong when I read my text and then go on to make a coherent sentence or paragraph. A bit like putting a jigsaw together.
