Learning Disabled, Need Some Advice
#6
Quote:None of the finals I have taken for Study have had written answers- it’s all multiple choice- even the English Comp classes. You also are given 100-120 minutes to do the final exam. There are anywhere from 70-120 questions on the final.

That's good to know. In that case, the only disability accommodation I'm likely to need would be a request for extra time on timed tests. I expect that won't be a problem.
Quote:The English Comp courses and all the UL courses do require essays to pass the class. However, you do them on your own time and with your own word processor. So you have the ability to spell check and go however fast or slow you like.

Also good to know.
Quote:I’m not sure where you’re looking to go to school, but Study.com courses transfer into TESU as pass/fail and not whatever grade you got with Study.com for the course so that also takes some pressure off the classes.

I'm not sure, yet. I'm using University of Michigan's grad school requirements as a rule-of-thumb measuring rod. Every school will be different, but if I use their entrance requirements as a guide I don't expect difficulty.
Quote: I don’t know what kind of accommodations CLEP offers, but I do remember seeing something about them on their website.

I read that, too. I expect asking for extra time and maybe a short break or two won't be a problem.
Quote:For my two math classes with Study.com, I was allowed to have a non-graphing scientific calculator.

As near as I can tell, most testing environments permit a non-graphing non-programmable calculator. Many test environments simulate a Texas Instruments TI-30XS Multiview calculator in software. So, I bought that specific model knowing it would typically be permitted. A rare few tests only allow for a four-function calculator; that's okay too.
