This has been going on for a while since the SAT and ACT implemented these special test taking environments for supposedly disable students. Many elite parents have found doctors willing to certify their kid had a disability at a minimum to have more time to take the exam.

Different rules for different folks.

Because we want to be “fair”.

The whole thing is a scam so they can take their tests alone in another room..so I would tell them, if you cant take a test in a classroom with your fellow classmates, you dont belong in school, period

This reminds me of rich people paying disabled people to accompany them to Disney World so they can cut in line.

Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin.
Going the extra mile for their kids.
Are these 2 women up for “Mom-of-the-Year” Awards?

The whole college entrance process is a gigantic hoax.

What industry can charge a premium, and constantly increasing, price for a commodity with 10 000+ unsold units every year?

The irony is that people who truly have learning disabilities would give anything to take those tests with everyone else.

We all should be proud of our sons and daughters for studying hard and taking these tests honestly.

Dr. Laura was just talking about this on her show. They’d get this therapeutic waiver and then they’d be allowed to have someone sit with them during the test as a “special accommodation”.

The person who did this was a thirtysomething with multiple degrees from Harvard.

Could this lead to people falsely claiming native American status for career advancement?

Nah, nobody would stoop that low...

I know someone who did this for the LSAT decades ago. Got unlimited time and the ability to type out his essay responses, rather than do them long-hand.

A scam, of course.

What if my Fake Emotional Support Dog has a Fake Learning Disability? Does that mean he can fly first class?

The doctors should be indicted, too.

As a mom of special needs kids this is disgusting. How dare these wealthy holier than thous hurt the disabled in this way?! I’m really angry over this. My son will need this kind of help, very smart but trouble with directions and doesn’t speak. How dare these a holes screw up his chances to actually learn a trade when their millionaire spawn are only attending to party and grant their parents status!!?
