[blindlaw] Question about LSAT accommodations

[Allison Nastoff]

Hello,
I am a new member to this list. I have thought about studying law for
the past few years because I think it is a profession I would enjoy
and do well in. I have put off registering for the LSAT after reading
about some nightmarish experiences other blind people have had when
requesting accommodations, but since I have been a college grad for
over a year now and still haven't found a job with my current
education (bachelor of science in communication), I decided Wednesday
that I am ready to be brave and face the LSAC.
On that note, I have a few questions as I prepare my request for accommodations.
1. For those who have taken the test in Braille, how did you mark your
answers? The last standardized test I took (the ACT in high school, I
put little dot stickers next to the letter of my choice in the book
and then went back through and read the answers to my proctor who
transcribed them on to the print answer sheet. Does the Braille LSAT
take in to account the need to be able to mark answers, not just read
the test, or do I have to come up with my own system for marking
answers and list that as a separate accommodation?
2. The accommodations I am planning to request are a Braille test,
extra time, a computer equipped with JAWS and a printer for the
writing and diagrams, and a separate room so these accommodations
don't disrupt others. Are there any other accommodations I should
consider requesting that I may not have thought of?
Thank you so much in advance to anyone who can help me.
