Solution
- Generally, people with learning disabilities have average or above-average intelligence (IQ).
- However, there often appears to be a gap between the individual's potential and actual achievement.
- This is why learning disabilities are referred to as "hidden disabilities".
- The person looks perfectly "normal" and seems very bright and intelligent, yet may be unable to demonstrate the skill level expected from someone of a similar age.
