Hi Shelly,

I have some usable vision, so my accommodations were different than what
yours would be, but your requested accommodations sound reasonable to me.
I'm pretty sure extended time will not be a problem, and usually, they put
you in a separate room if you have that accommodation anyway since you'll
need a separate proctor. One thing to keep in mind is that they may change
your test date and location because of your accommodations. I honestly am
not sure why they do this (perhaps lack of resources?), but it happened to
me. My test date was still in June since I signed up for the June LSAT, but
it was not on the official test day like everyone else. I don't know how
prevalent that is, but it's something to keep in mind and be ready for just
in case. They notified me of the changes a few weeks or so before the test.
Using a screen reader should also not be a problem. I have heard that some
people have had trouble with being granted scratch paper in the past, but
as Alosha pointed out, the LSAC's current legal situation may influence
them to be more reasonable about that. Best of luck on your LSAT!
