"Dyslexic in legal action on exams"

I would have thought that a multiple choice examination would be somewhat easier than a written examination for someone with dyslexia.
Well as someone with mild dyslexia I can tell you multiple choice is a killer.
Despite Marks jest, people with dyslexia can read, but our brains are wired a little different thus we tend to see things in a very literal/logical/Mr spook sense, so without context, seeing the question in more depth I am prone to make a mistake.
I also find it odd that such an important field as medicine is using multiple choice, I used to just play the odds with MC and I always scraped home.
And a better Dyslexic joke, Did you hear the one about the Dyslexic devil worshiper who sold his soul to Santa.
Dyslexics of the world: untie!
Mr Spook? I guess he was a close friend of Bones.
Most modern MCQs have negative marking for incorrect answers so you get hammered for playing the odds.
In a society that uses words and numbers to communicate, we need medical staff that can use them competently. If this student is unable to do so to a sufficient degree then sorry, choose a career where lives aren't on the line.
Next week: dyslexic sues army for not letting her be a code breaker.
