Did you do the Trail Making A & B ? What were your times for A & B ?

What were your verbal and math SAT scores ?
Did the WAIS include the different intelligence scales ?
How about WAIS processing speed ?

To a Neuro Psych who works with patients who were low GCS (Glascow Coma Score) and even comatose, the struggles of PCS patients are mild. This can be a bias. Some NP's think people with divergent scales are faking or have psychological causes to their problems. But, The validity scales will help with this. Validity scales below 37 show inconsistencies or malingering. Mine were 48 and 49 out of 50 but the NP claimed I was faking because my WAIS intelligence scores were high.

What benefits are you hoping to get from insurance ?

Accommodations at work should not depend on an NPA only. ADA applies to anything that changes how you can function on the job when compared to a normal person.
