[blindlaw] Testing accommodations

[john]

Hello Leslie,
I was granted extra time on the Florida bar on both parts. I asked for this
as part of my accommodations.
Take care,
John

Hi James:

Are you saying that only the essay portion is in electronic format? I hope 
not. If I can get the whole exam in electronic format, I will request it 
along with a scribe to fill in my answers. I plan on asking for extra 
time. I'm a pretty fast Braille reader, but may need to use extra time on 
the essays. However, I'm speaking from inexperience here, having never 
written an essay under timed conditions before. I can usually make the 
time limit for multiple choice questions though. That does bring up 
another question. For those of you who took the bar or a test like the 
FYLSE, did you need extra time to write your essays? Thanks for all 
responses and input.
