I have a son in the 11th grade that was previously diagnosed with Dyslexia. We had been working with our school counselor trying to get him extended time on the SAT. The dyslexia testing we had was completed when he was in the 5th grade. He had been receiving 504 accommodations, but needed his dyslexia testing updated in order for the College Board to consider him for extend time. We found Diagnostic learning Services on the internet and gave them a call. Laurie was very informative and was familiar with our situation. She was able to get our son in for a full academic evaluation within a week and we had the results back in just a few days. She met with my husband and I to review the results then gave us some suggestions on additional accommodations that the school could do for our son. Her evaluation gave us so much more information than just the confirmation of his Dyslexia. We left her office feeling like we had a better understanding of our son and how he learns. We are happy to report that he also was able to receive additional time on his SAT. Thanks so much Laurie!\r
