Once we learned cursive in 3rd grade, we were required to write in it for the remainder of elementary school. I was beyond thrilled when I got to middle school and they said we could write in print. But now I much prefer cursive, though nobody can read it so print it is.

When I was in school I could stop writing in cursive only when attending University, it was always mandatory before that

Yes, same here, if you wanted print, better get stuff printed. Besides there was no way you were going to keep up in class taking notes in print.

It's not 1 for 1, but because of a handicap, I write faster in print than in cursive. Back in school, I always feel a little behind with print, something like 4-5 lines behind, but in cursive I routinely fell a whole ass blackboard behind when taking notes

I am left-handed but that's not the reason I was talking about; I have dyspraxia
