Parents report surge in students receiving extra time accommodations on standardized college entrance exams
High school parents are expressing frustration over a significant increase in the number of students granted extended time on the SAT and ACT, with some attributing the rise to students obtaining accommodations through questionable medical diagnoses. At Jericho High School on Long Island, at least 60 juniors received extra time on the ACT during a single year. The NY Post reports that approximately 6.7% of students taking the SAT in 2025 received accommodations, more than triple the rate from a decade ago.
