[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s the real reason. So they can get accommodations in the classroom and EXTENDED TIME on tests. Who wouldn’t want their child to get unlimited time for the SAT if they could come up for a phony reason that they need it![/quote] It’s not unlimited time. It’s time and a half. That said, tests determine if the student is SPED.[b] If there is a considerable discrepancy between language and math processing speed then the child is SPED.[/b] [/quote] No, that's not true. You can't diagnose any DSM condition on the basis of processing speed alone; nor can a discrepancy in processing speed be what qualifies you for an IEP under IDEA. [/quote]
