I'm not sure if this is due to my reading habit or I have my reading habit because of this, but I always do incredibly well on those reading comprehension tests you might have to take as part of aptitude tests. So while I do well in logic and usually suck in the maths part, I score so high in the reading part that I astonish the recruiters. I feel like it might make up for the maths part considering that I still keep getting hired for analyst roles. My reading habit doesn't include anything particularly smart though. I mostly read fantasy and comics and average around 30 novels a year.

Glad to hear this. I was in Slovenia for a week a few years ago and everyone I met was quite conservative and I kept thinking if it was the norm or if I just happened to meet certain types of people. I even had a young tour guide go off on a big anti EU rant at me.
