But what does your keyboard layout still look like? Unless you changed your keys around, I'm calling B.S. 
I have a dvorak keyboard, but my wife uses qwerty, so when I use hers, I type in qwerty.

Seriously dude...try dvorak for a week and you'll never go back. It's so much smoother and causes much less fatigue. You can get little stickers for your keyboard if you want.

I always did math differently than the textbooks taught. I found easier ways to get the same answers. I rarely used a calculator, and I never showed my work. My senior year of high school, I actually got an elective credit for teaching algebra 1 while the actual teacher just graded papers. My geometry teacher would always teach out of the book, then ask me how I would do it. If my way proved more efficient, she wrote it down to teach it to other classes.

I am so with you. I do math a lot differently than most. but I think most Geniuses do so as well. Am I genius? No fucking way.
Math is easy to get away with cause there are so many ways to get to the right answer, not just one way. Your way might be harder for someone to figure out an equation and vise vesa.

You're absolutely right. I'm not technically a genius either, but I'm pretty close according to IQ.

I love math and do it really differently too. My teachers always asked how I got the answers, and I couldn't even explain...

I actually hate math, I'm just really good at it. I never had a problem explaining how I got my answers. Today, if I were to see any math aside from basic problems, I'd have trouble with it at first because I don't remember.
