Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
When I took my test well...same shit happened to me. They didnt' give me the right test to begin with, half of it wasn't even brailled up, and yes, my calc had to be improved by the board. Yes, so guess what happened? I was told to go home
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
Use this time to size up this college's disability services anyway, see if other people rant and rave about it. If you can't find much promising stuff then scratch it off the list and find another one that does. If you have a good drs
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
@Zarvox I say it can't hurt to try. Unless they are very strict about standardized tests.

Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
They denied the 30 dollar reschedule fee waver. And they said even if it was waved there would be a fee for that. At least that’s what I think I heard

Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
They didn’t deny it. The accomidation wasn’t approved in time. But for some reason they used my freshman list. Guess tsb didn’t update it. And apparently we missed it in my last ard

Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
Gotta agree with 25 here. The TI84+ is most likely the most well-known graphing calculator in the country. They're bullshitting you, definitely. I'd call your testing board and file a complaint, and if that doesn't work, I'd push it all
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
I don't suppose tit would vary from state to state, that'd be a hot mess if it did considering it's supposed to be one test taken by all college-bound students, unless otherwise noted. The TI84+ was said to be approved at launch
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
They denied a TI84 plus?Isn't that from APH?One of my blind friends was able to use his just fine, maybe it varies from state to state?

Oryan TI84. I believe the plus model. They should have a list of automatically approved talking calculators

Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
On the calculator issue, in Britain when I was taking GCSE maths back in the mid nineties, there were specific exams that you were or were not allowed a calculator for, and that was true for everyone. I had no problem with the talking
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
Speaking of approved calculators, why didn't they give you a TI84+? Considering that's like the gold standard for graphing calculators, and a graphing calculator is a requirement in high school classes (at least in my high school math courses
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
All I'm saying here is, math techniques can sometimes, not always, but sometimes be used in place of a calculator.I've done a calculator math exam with no calculator many times, more out of arrogance than denial of use, and managed to get
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
Some of them can literally solve algebra equations, you just put them in and bam, like that, no biggie. That's why I imagine they wouldn't approve them all. I had one that would do this, that was back in '05.

Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
But it isn't a programmable talking calculator, and that's bs when in my case a note taker was allowed, and the Texas Instruments calculators have been approved.Meanwhile here's a good reminder that College Board, along with dozens of other
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
While usually I'd agree that the College Board are a bunch of horrible people who care about nothing other than maximizing profit and making sure everyone has a terrible experience while dealing with them, in this case I'm on their side.If

Yeah, they did the same thing to me with my TSI in Texas

My phd is actually in philosophy, more specifically in ethics, and even more specifically the ethics of disability.

Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
I had to take the GRE for grad school it was offel. I bombed it and got like a 40 but still got into school. As for the ACT the first time I my school lost our answers so I had to do them all over again! UGH! I started out in community so I
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
I’m very fortunate to have made it past all of that nonsense in high school. The SAT exists just to test you on how well you do on the SAT. Colleges are moving away from holding applicants to their standardized test scores. It’s becoming
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
Wow, I didn't have that issue when I took the ACT, that really sucks. I actually do understand why laptops or notetakers aren't allowed, and I don't think having someone look over your shoulder is an acceptable solution, either. I would
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
So I've never had any issues with the SAT myself, but I have with the ACT. So what happened was, after they approved my accomodations, I was literally about to take the test when, BOOM! There wasn't a braille test sent with the box
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
This is the one reason I believe standardized tests need to just die off. They are in the hands of corporate shlobs. Yes, I said it. They have that hidden line in the fineprint that says please do not share anything on the net or social media
Re: Fucking college board does me fucking wrong
There are a great many colleges that are going test-optional, and even if you take one of those, your score does not even have that much baring on your acceptance status. I would consider a college that doesn't have a requirement, I will say
