[quote=Anonymous]Serious question to OP - what harm would come to your XT kid if everyone had the same amount of time? Your kid gets XT because they need more time to process, to write out (show) their work, to re-focus when distracted ... whatever the underlying rationale, your kid is getting what they deserve to do the best they are able to do. Let's say, 30 minutes does the trick to bring your kid to the ceiling of her capabilities. Great, she gets 90 minutes to complete a test that Teacher thinks should take about 60 minutes. Now NT Bobby and Susie and Timmy ALSO are allotted 90 minutes to complete the same test. What is taken away from your kid if NT Bobby gets 90 minutes? Didn't we just stipulate that your kid needs about 90 total minutes to reach the extent of her ability? (ie, that 120 minutes wouldn't help / add capacity). [/quote]
