[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my DD, HFA and ADHD. She is fine for 1 hour. But, when they did the Neuropsych evaluation, they could see the fatigue killed her ability to think. To the point where, in the early sections she would score in the 99% percentile, but the later sections, the 40% percentile, leading to an overall FSIQ of 112. But, in another test, which was shorter duration, she measured at 138. She has 50% extra time. Frankly, she would be happy with regular time but longer breaks. That option does not exist. What it did was allowed her to get refocused while taking the SATs. In in-class tests, she usually does not need extra time. The AP tests did require it. Sometimes, the issues are real. As for the lack of extra time in the real world, 10 minute breaks to get up an walk around are usually acceptable, at least in my job.[/quote] The ACT has an option to take it over multiple days.
