<p>Are flex test results looked at differently by admission officers than regular SSAT results? Is it better to submit lower scores from a regular test or higher scores from a flex test?</p>
<p>My understanding (from a secondary school placement director I heard speak last week) is that the schools don’t usually know if you took a test with accommodations. Unless you were allowed to type the essay - then they know. </p>
<p>Please note that a Flex Test is not an accommodation. It is simply given on an unusual date and usually has a smaller amount of students taking the test. The test is exactly the same format and the same exact rules of proctoring are required. As mentioned on the website, the percentages are lumped in with the other earlier dates, so it is still based on North America and gender. </p>
