how does adcom will look at study disability

<p>assuming I will get some sort of adaption to my as a result of study disability (dyslexia) , will it affect me admission? will the adcom will think that my score is "less good" then other scores</p>

<p>Some schools are not very kind toward any sort of non-physical disability, unfortunately. That being said, dyslexia does not have the onus some other maladies have (ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, etc …). Thus, it would be important for you to report it, as it indicates something you have worked to overcome and/or cope with.</p>

<p>I mean assuming I will do the SAT with extra time due to my dyslexia or something like that and get a good grade . will they think of that grade as like I got it without any “help” or not?</p>

<p>Use whatever accommodations you find necessary so that you are able to perform to the best of your ability on any standardized tests that you take.</p>

<p>thank you happymomof1</p>

<p>They no longer disclose to schools when a student had extra time.</p>

<p>thank you hmom5
I have to say that it is annoying to wonder if it diminish one. I mean dyslexia is a problem and it should make anyone less capable in the eyes of the adcom.</p>
