I've had a call from Campus Office about a request for
double time which would mean having 6 hours to complete a 3 hour
exam on the grounds of ADD. There is no direct evidence to back
up the need for this, just a statement from the student's doctor. I
have advised them to request a copy of his diagnosis
I'd be interested to know of other Universities experiences on
providing sea's for students with ADD and what accommodations
tend to be made. Are requests for double time in cases like this
often made, or indeed necessary ?
Regards
Katy
