    The fraud with DLA is double digit and definitely above 10% ... unofficially ... don't ask me from where are I know it but I know it for sure ...

    And just before retiring age with the last possibility to get a car fraud levels are even higher ...
    so if the fraud rates are even higher just before retiring age on dla.i hate to think what the fraud rates are for aa,yet they are not being looked at,very unfair in my opinion
    i came into the world with nothing,and guess what? i still have it!!!:p

    If they can't read recipes, they can also get DLA that way. I have completely different disabilities to you Ash, but do have reading difficulties like you do.

    never thought of that one, might explain how much i messed up at school though with cooking i got baned after 1 lesson reading instructions arent my strong point

    Just interested. How did you get a University place with those attainment levels?

    My reading age is slightly higher (15) but I still managed to get into university. It just meant needing extra support in seminars.

    So what would the average be?

    I only ask because I have been accepted for Mensa following an IQ test with a much lower score than 171.

    In fact I know no one with a score that high. Truly you must be a genius.
