[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People see it as unfair because of parents who game the system without a real need for the child but for unfair advantage. It’s a regular scam, often used for athletes but not limited to them.[/quote] You do realize that the test is marked "with accommodation". My child is entitled to get extra time for an anxiety disorder diagnosed at 4 years old and a life long constant struggle. Because the acknowledged "with accommodations" my child does not take the extra time. We practice 5x more than anyone we know, just to adjust to the setting. We view it as the disadvantage it is.[/quote] Neither the SAT nor the ACT mark their tests "with accommodation." The schools do not know what student had accommodations. Why would anyone use them if they were marked as such?[/quote]
