[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I didn't read all the posts. I have a kid who has ADHD, first diagnosed in pre-k. Extra time on a test is a useless accommodation. He's the first one to finish any test or assignment because he rushes through everything to get it over with and game or doodle. Just getting him to use the full allotted time would be huge! I am very skeptical of the people who get an ADHD diagnosis to get more time on tests. The only accommodation that helped him was medication, but he went in the opposite direction and stopped taking it in middle school because he wants to be a pilot. [/quote] You know not every kid with ADHD presents like this right? Some zone out and need more time. Others have issues with processing so need more time. Also your child may have issues with time management on timed tests that results in rushing. [/quote]
