[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, what is up with MoCo not getting the accommodations in place for kids for the psat??

This happened to BOTH of my stop kids. I told his parent it’s the second kid to email the counselor and make sure he would get the accommodations since the first kid didn’t. And he didn’t, and the second kid also didn’t get accommodations.

It’s so annoying. It should be automatic.

[b]MCPS parents, email the counselors months in advance to make sure their kid has the accommodations in place for the psat, act, sat, and ap[/b].[/quote]

THIS

I didn't know I should do this so my DS with a 504 did not get accommodations for his PSAT. The counselor said it was a screw up-he was sent to the wrong room to take the test and then the teacher wouldn't let him leave when he said he should be in a different room for kids with accommodations. Well, that type of error never happened again with him and though DS is smart, he wasn't going to qualify for a National Merit Scholarship so we let it go. The scores didn't reflect his abilities and he understood this based on the situation. No worries though, he did great on the ACT when he got his accommodations and got into a great college. I would not overthink this even though it's very disappointing.[/quote]
