We put her EpiPens, inhaler, and phone in a Ziploc bag labeled with her name. She handed it to the proctor when she arrived, and the proctor quipped something along the lines of "hope we don't make you have to use these." I think it was likely in jest. All went well. We'll find out scores in December and in January will find out if she makes it to the next round.
She thought the test was easy. Regardless of the outcome, this was good practice for the PSAT, SAT, etc. when they really count. Our application for accommodations with the College Board is still being processed. The staff member, who's shepherding it for us said that once in place, that they'll be in place until a year after high school graduation; so there'll be no need to go through the process again in the future.
Thanks for the guidance, help, and support.
