We are still considering if we should request extra time on the SAT's for my son. I do know one can request extra time on the SAT & ACT tests, the downside that I'd heard is that it is notated on their scores that extra time was taking.


Please check with College Board directly-- there hasn't been any asterisk to indicate that accommodations were in place... at least not since about 2000.


But this is a great reminder to parents to have a LONG-standing diagnosis and 504 plan going into that phase of academic life, because there are a lot of unscrupulous people who go diagnosis-shopping come SAT-time, just for the bonus of extra time, which raises MOST scores significantly.
