As far as I know [ had a student with dislexia who took the test ], she's
given extra time for each section and if she's entitled through the Ivhun ,
she should get an English speaking person [ not necessarily a teacher ] to
read the passages to her . Altogether it takes a lot of time.
She's given a separate room and it takes place in some other place , my
guess is because of the logistics .
she should make sure all details are cleared and checked and rechecked as
they tend to mess it up a bit- the reader doesn't come on time , the
loudspeakers sometimes don't work etc. But it seems to be more user
friendly. Good luck ,
Rachelli
