[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Teachers are fine with it unless they feel the student doesn't truly need the accommodations and is gaming the system. Which happens all the time. Explain why he needs the accommodations if his condition is well medicated?[/quote] Not OP, but what would him being well medicated have to do with whether he needs this accommodation, given that medication doesn't impact processing speed?[/quote] Extra time is not just about processing speed. It can allow for breaks in focus, for example. It can be extra time like an extra week to complete an assignment, so that they can lose it and find it again and then do it and then forget to turn it in and then remember. Disorganization is time-consuming.[/quote]
