Accommodations for High Stakes Exams

Preparing for high-stakes exams like the GRE, LSAT, MCAT, USMLE/COMLEX-USA, or Bar Exam can be overwhelming—especially for students managing conditions like ADHD, learning disabilities, anxiety, or other cognitive or psychological challenges. These exams are often fast-paced, high-pressure, and heavily time-restricted, which can unfairly disadvantage individuals with documented impairments.

Neuropsychological testing can help determine whether you qualify for accommodations and provide the documentation needed to support your application under the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act (ADAAA).

Our comprehensive evaluations assess areas such as:

• Attention and concentration
• Processing speed
• Working memory
• Executive functioning (organization, planning, self-monitoring)
• Reading comprehension and fluency
• Test-related anxiety and emotional functioning

If testing reveals a qualifying diagnosis—such as ADHD, a specific learning disorder, or an anxiety disorder—you may be eligible for accommodations, which can include:

• Extended testing time
• Breaks during the exam
• Reduced-distraction or private testing rooms
• Assistive technology or alternate formats
• Special scheduling considerations

We ensure that your evaluation report is detailed and aligned with the documentation standards of major testing organizations. If you’re unsure whether you qualify or need updated documentation, we can guide you through the process.
