If a person who is otherwise intelligent (Good reasoning skills, language, mathematical, does fine in school, ect) has trouble with the following, could it hint a brain disorder or deficiency?
- Person lacks adequate mapping skills. For example, cannot remember how to get from one point to the next, even if they've been to both places many times before.
- Cannot mentally rotate 3-d objects to solve simple problems. For example, someone who struggles in an astronomy course only because they cannot understand the movement of cellestial bodies in their mind.
The person inquestion has great trouble with these things, and also has great difficulty recognizing faces of people they've just met.
In addition, they often get confused with mathematical problems, because they can't keep track of the steps they've used in a problem, even if they know the procedure to solve it.
