Can not do math in my head. I have to write down the problem. I excelled in math but only because I recognized the wording in problems - the teachers were not very creative so the problems repeated the same issue with different numbers. I have a phenomenal memory and excelled through memory although I had no clue what the math meant.
This weekend I was watching TV and a cartoon show came on in which the characters used fractions to save the world. My brain simply glazed over. It was geared to 10-12 year olds and I was mystified. But give me a pen and paper and I can solve almost anything.

I also have zero sense of direction. The sun rises in the east and I still can't find east. Made for interesting flying lessons but that is another story. My co-workers think it is hysterical that I need a map of Old Port just to find my way around the corner. Can't explain why but I am always lost.
