Hi, I stumbled across this site when researching the importance of being successful in maths versus becoming an engineer. My 15 yr old son has both dyscalculia and dyslexia. His dream is to be an engineer (at this stage mechanical engineer) and he knows that dyslexic people make great engineers :0). However he is dealing with both conditions so I would love to hear from anyone who has achieved this goal for themselves or has some knowledge about how I can assist him in making his dream a reality. Thanks
