Standardized exams like the SAT, ACT, GRE, or professional entrance tests are designed to measure student achievement under the same conditions. But for students with learning differences, ADHD, anxiety, or other challenges, these tests may not accurately reflect their true abilities.
Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), students with documented disabilities are eligible for testing accommodations that ensure an equal opportunity to demonstrate their knowledge. These accommodations must be supported by a formal assessment from a qualified professional.
At IEP Connection, we provide the comprehensive evaluations required to secure exam accommodations, empowering students to approach these high-stakes tests with confidence.
In-depth evaluations to understand each child’s unique strengths and needs.
Guidance and advocacy to ensure education plans meet student goals.
Bridging families and educators to create the best learning environment.
Required Documentation: Most testing organizations (SAT, ACT, LSAT, GRE, etc.) require a detailed assessment report that explains the nature of the disability and how it affects performance under timed conditions.
Full Picture of Learning: Our assessments measure cognitive, academic, attention, and processing abilities under both timed and untimed conditions, providing a clear picture of a student’s unique needs.
Functional Impact: We explain not just the diagnosis, but also how the disability directly affects testing performance, making your request stronger and more likely to be approved.
Our evaluations do more than secure testing accommodations. They also provide:
✅ Personalized recommendations for study strategies and classroom supports
✅ Guidance for parents and educators to reinforce learning
✅ Referrals for therapies or interventions, if helpful
✅ Confidence for students by understanding their strengths and challenges
Students and families often worry about how accommodations will affect their scores. Accommodated exams are generally not flagged meaning results are reported the same way as non-accommodated scores. This ensures fairness and privacy throughout the process.
