[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to ask what your motivation is - to give your child the same chance to do well at the tests, or to always have advantages that nobody else has. It should be the former, but it sounds like it’s not, and honestly this thread probably makes other families feel like accommodations are an unfair idea. My take is that typical students won’t benefit much from all that extra time but your child (and others with disabilities) will, so yes I do think that it should be enough. And I agree with a previous comment that some kids are undiagnosed or refuse their accommodations so this is a way to even the playing field for everyone. Surely you want that? [/quote] +1 30 minutes is 30 minutes and especially if you're at a private I'd just be happy with that since they really don't have to give anything extra.[/quote]
