[Pibe-division] ACT and SAT

[Mikayla Gephart]

Hi, Gail,
I am a high school sophomore who took the PSAT and Plan in October, which I think Plan is the same thing at the PSAT but for the ACT. All of the students took these tests during school hours and my TVI gave me the tests. I got extra time. I know this is not exactly what you were looking for, but I hope this helps.
Best,
Mikayla

You will have to be specific. I forgot to include a braillewriter the first time I did it and it was a mess trying to add it later. ETS will pay for a teacher with Braille certification to administer the test. There is a window of time to take the test (approximately 2 weeks). I used to schedule it for whatever I thought the student could handle. I had some take it in a day and some over 2 days and some take a whole week. There is a lot of documentation requirements so be sure they have a current vision and diagnosis.
