[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]why are the questions on alternate test day harder? any proof or just personal feeling?[/quote] Just from experience for the last 2 years. The math questions were harder, and from my personal experience (so just a very small sampling), only kids with valid excuses (death in family) are offered admission. I knew several kids who were granted alternate date because of conflict with other activities but were denied admission.[/quote] This is BS. I have 2 kids with ADHD who did alternate testing for ADHD accommodations (small group and extended time) . Kid 1was offered admissions and attends. Kid 2 advanced to the semifinals and is up this year. If they were culling kids because they gave a 504 or IEP and need accommodations, they would be sued so fast their head would spin. TJ has a 15% admit rate. The 3 kids you know are not a representative sample. [/quote]
