Wouldn't say nothing to do with.
Many neurodivergent students find themselves in situations where they haven't fully absorbed the taught material. Many of them end up figuring problems out themselves, with varying degrees of creativity and success
Neurotypical students do the same thing. It’s not like every neurotypical will internalize every piece of material they are taught.
Yup, I'm most likely neurotypical (never been diagnosed either way, just never had issues w/ traditional learning), and I generally ignored the teacher and did things my own way. I was always really good at math, so the teacher's way was usually less efficient for me, so once I understood the operation, I'd create shortcuts.
We'd go over the same material a lot, so I'd usually just do homework while the teacher taught some new way to do the same operation. I'd get marked down for doing it differently from the instructions, but I'd get the answer right.
