[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]2. There needs to be a notation that additional test time was utilized by the test taker.[/quote] Nope. HIPPA, ADA, etc.[/quote] There is no requirement that an accomodation not be disclosed. They have to be provided. They should be disclosed. Further, and more to the point, the problem is not so much a kid getting to take an extra hour for the exam. Rather, poor [b]kids and middle class kids who do not have the resources to get outside tutoring, or to take multiple tests, multiple times. Isn't a kid from not so great inner city schools who pulls a 25 on the one time they took the ACT way, way ahead of a kid who gets a 34 on their 4th time after 20 hours of outside tutoring[/b]? [/quote] That's what the adversity score everyone is complaining about is mean to capture.[/quote]
