[blindlaw] LSAT Accommodations?

Haben,

Braille test and double time seem to be the requests most often 
talked about here.  Some ask for time and a half, since that's 
typical in the university setting, but most who do wish they'd 
requested double.  Given the very high stakes nature of the LSAT and 
that I don't think more time will make a person more analytical or 
logical, this seems reasonable to me.
