[nabs-l] SAT Rules Re: SAT ACCOMMODATIONS

Fri Apr 8 00:19:16 UTC 2011

I don't think the rules vary,
but the implementation.

The rules usually change according to whom ever does the test, according to their interpretation.

Hope that makes sense.

What is and is not allowed on standardized tests should be written down and available to the public, and, when there is a major change, people should have a way of finding out. Based on responses to this thread, it sounds like people have had very different experiences, and I am interested in knowing why. In my humble opinion, unless a person has a very different disability or something different about his/her situation, most of the experience and rules for students who are blind/visually impaired should be the same. Is there anyone who can shed more light (no pun intended) on this topic?
