Accommodation requests for sitting for SAT and ACT college entrance and talent search examinations

[Anonymous]

It seems that upper elementary and middle school students that are talented in music, arts and sports have vastly more options (extracurricular clubs, teams, school clubs and organizations) than those with intellectual talents. I can understand the need for developing a portfolio of work to get to the next level.

Does the fallacy of developmentally inappropriate theories explain the middle school math mess in America? Why for some it is preposterous that an upper elementary or middle school student in America can't and shouldn't sit for a relatively simple PSAT and/or SAT examination? The other 30 countries performing better than US middle school students in math would certainly enjoy a hearty laugh over the developmentally inappropriate hypotheses of the DCUM educational experts. Many of these middle school students likely outperform America's high school students on the PSAT and SAT. Contrast the intellectual development of middle students in these 30 better performing countries to that of American middle school students?

No problem this is just a fleeting lag that a little accommodation from the college board and more time to take the test will cure. Our scores will get back up there.
