[nabs-l] the test accomodations

[Kirt]

I'm in the middle of the nightmare that is transferring between colleges, but the college I am leaving almost always provided me with competent and capable readers. Sure, they might pronounce a few words incorrectly But they knew how to read out loud.  I hope I don't run into the same problem you are dealing with right now and my next college.

Most my readers were incompetent but I got around that by asking them to speak slower and repeat things; I mean they could not speak all that clearly and read fast and spoke to the paper not articulately to me. Many exams I took with jaws to avoid this; I feel this way is slower for me and a reader can directly mark my answers on a scantron as well as go back to questions I missed. If I need a reader scribe I should be given a competent reader.
