[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 676455, member: 11791"] This is one of the basic accommodations. I'd take it one step farther and also ask for "untimed" tests in a separate setting. It doesn't mean they can take forever to write the test, just that they do not have to consider the clock, which reduces time-anxiety. This is also a basic and fairly normal accommodation. Some others that may be available at the post-secondary level: - access to scribed notes (either from another student, or from an aide) - reduced number of classes (often, 80% or 60% load will be considered), takes more semesters to finish - use of technology - sound surround systems for auditory processing disorders, allowance for computer use for exams (usually on a separate "clean" computer so they can't pre-store answers) are two of these.
