I imagine that at worst, you may need to take a little bit longer to complete your program. Taking time pressure off of yourself will enable you to have more security in your comprehension of topics. Extra time isn't always desirable financially, but at the end of the day completing a graduate degree certainly seems doable. Moreover in a positive mindset, you may even consider your dyslexia to be a benefit: to my knowledge, graduate school is about perseverance and work ethic as much as it is about intellectual ability. I'm sure that as a straight A student you have equal footing in intellect and perseverance, so I wouldn't be too concerned. :-)

I think your GRE scores are great! I aspire to earn those scores. I think as long as your LOR's and Personal Statement are good you have a good chance. 

First time applying! Interested in health/demography.
Looking for warm weather, so considering: UC Berkeley, UT Austin, Duke, UNC Chapel Hill, UVA, Vanderbilt, UPenn & Penn State.
GPA is fine but research experience not so advanced. Debating whether or not to add lower-ranked schools. Already took GRE but nervous it's not high enough for these schools. 160V (85th percentile), 160Q (75th percentile), 4.5W. Should I take again?
