That was a conscious decision. Being twins and all is fun, but people (and thus, teachers), tend to see you as one entity. We split classes when we were 11 years old, we both felt like we had to be our own person, with our own friends, independent from one another.
This also had some nice side effects, I was really good at languages, history and biology, so I could take my brother's tests. He was good at math and science, so he occasionally took mine.
Do you have thoughts as to the complementary skillsets are/were in part identity driven? in some areas perhaps compete and in others complement other's skill.
