[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you want to keep it a standardized test, either everyone should be given additional time to do the exams or nobody should. I have no doubt that the scores of people like me who did really well under the original time constraints would go up though. I wonder if proponents of extra time for slow processers would be okay with that? [/quote] I don't have an issue with extra time for all kids who need it, but often it comes down to wealth as the parents who are more wealthy are getting the private evaluations to get the perks regardless of if there is a true need or not. My child could use extra time. Has a documented language disorder that impacts processing but we choose not to as like others say, regardless of it, they've got to learn to function in the real world and adapt.[/quote]
