[quote=Anonymous] From this wsj story from May: More than a decade ago, the College Board, which administers the SAT and PSAT among other tests, stopped alerting colleges when students received extra time, and the numbers who requested it began to increase. From 2010-11 to last year, the number of accommodations requests jumped 171%, while the number of people taking the exams increased 22%. Last year, 94% of those requests were approved Basically if your kid has test anxiety or poor performer in times tests, if u don’t try to get them extra time accommodations, your kid will be at a disadvantage compared esp to the wealthy kids who are getting extended time accommodations [/quote]
