[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know this sounds crazy, but I don't see how extra time helps. I was smart and affluent and always finished early. I'm a fast reader and extra time wouldn't have helped me. [/quote] It does not help. This is very well documented. People want to believe it would help so they can blame kids with LD's for their kids low scores. [/quote] If a kid does not finish all of the questions on a test because the time ran out while they were thinking through the questions, yes, it would help. It is not at all abnormal or unusual for kids to run out of time on these tests. [/quote]
