<p>I do have a mental disorder. I have an OCD that constantly almost forces myself to double check, triple check, or even quadruple check things before I can move on. I need to check my answers on my test before I can hand in or else I will get very very very nervous and won’t even be able focus for next ~10 min or so. I need to check if all stoves/faucets are turned off before I can go to sleep or else I won’t be able to sleep comfortably, and that checking can range from three times to even ~20th times.</p>
<p>MagicMike - if you haven’t felt that you have needed accommodations to be successful in high school, it is doubtful that you will get approved for SAT or ACT. But you can try. You will have to provide diagnosis codes from your earliest educational psychological testing results as well as show that you have been tested in the last 3 years as well. And that these neuropsych evals also indicate that you need to have extended time in class and on standardized testing. If you have these, then talk to your parents and submit a request through your school for accommodations. Your school is the one that has to submit the request, not the family.</p>
<p>Ugh that’s not fair. Because a standardized test is 4 hours long, while tests in school are always under an hour and the reviews are just like the tests, so it’s not hard if you study. I see a big difference in them.</p>

<p>It’s 4 hours but you get a break between each sections… Think of it as 4 separate tests that you gotta take in school(4 classes, 4 different tests, and 4 breaks in-between).</p>
