Dyslexia and IB
My cousin is dyslexic, and is interested in starting the IB. In the Danish school system he gets extra time to complete his exams because he is dyslexic. I know many other systems do that. Does IB?
Now I've also been told that it's possible to use specific computer programmes that scan text and read them aloud if you have them available to you.. is this true?
of course ib sud 've as many ppl like me become dyslexic doin ib....i truly believe in da sayin....i was born intelligent but education ruined me.

I am dyslexic, you get an average of 25% extra but if your case is more severe then it can go even higher. The highest I have seen is extra 50%.
Yes this is true, you have to have a Certain cases i.e dyslexia-ADHD-ADD-etc and it has to be proven. But yes the IB is very lenient with
needs and extra support people like me.
