    Deaf Asexuals?

    I would like to know if there are any fellow deaf asexuals on this forum. (Asexuals are people who are not capable of experiencing sexual attraction and therefore don't have the desire to have sex.) As an asexual, I'm capable of experiencing romantic/emotional attraction. I hope to find a...

    I might request extended time for exams since I'm a slow/not very good reader. I'm legally blind in one eye. I requested it a few times at UC Davis. It really helped me ease my anxiety. I would provide the disability office the copies of my audiogram and eye prescription and statement from...

    I can't read too well neither. :Oops: I have severe lazy eye and might have dyslexia. Hopefully, they won't prevent me from pursuing my dream of becoming a scientist.

    Thanks :) Sounds like you love science too. I don't like animals work neither. I worked with mice, dogs and rabbits before. I killed thousands of mice with CO2 and chloroform and stuck needles into hearts to draw all the blood out when they were still alive.

    Can't take the test because I'm asexual. I have never had a sex drive or sexual desire (I'm 26).

    Standardized tests

    I learned English as a second language...probably why my verbal score is so poor. Here are some GRE words: petulance, perhelion, polemic, intramural, archipelago. :) I hope they will overlook my GRE, since my other areas are pretty strong.

    Standardized tests

    Anyone think standardized tests complete bullsh*t? Has anyone seen some of the words on the GRE Verbal section? they are really ridiculous. I did horrible on my General GRE that I took almost 4 years ago, yet had high GPAs. Unfortunately I can't retake this test this year because I have...
