[quote=Anonymous]My DC received accommodations from the College Board four years ago. It wasn't a "trick" or a scam. He has a rather profound form of dyslexia and dysgraphia. He was awarded 50% more time and a reader and a scribe. FWIW, it takes longer to take a test with a reader and a scribe as all of the information has to go through two brains - both the question and the answer. This story is really disturbing and scary because it will probably make students like my son have a harder getting the accommodations they need. I tis the same way with people with service animals getting on airplanes. People have abused that and now hey are changing rules making it harder to take on a service animal. The people that really need it have to jump through more and more hoops. [/quote]
