[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will the prospective colleges be informed about accommodation/learning differences/etc.? My DC did the HSPT at her school recently and this is when she found out many classmates had "accommodations." They didn't have a time limit to finish the HSPT. Some students asked the teacher: "Why do we have to stop now and they can keep doing the test?" The teacher gave a lame answer: "They paid for it." After all, it makes sense. [/quote] No - after College Board was sued, they stopped marking which tests were given extended time. That is when accommodations among the wealthy especially in the private schools spiked. Just google this. This is an extremely unfair system that tilts to private schools and wealthier kids especially among the white population.[/quote]
