How do admissions departments look at GMAT's taken with accommodations, such as extra time for those with adhd. Should this be addressed in optional essay? Does it really matter to them?

Hello,

From my understanding, the adcoms are not apprised of the accommodations -- after all, that would essentially negate the purpose of the accommodations. Therefore no explanation on your part would be warranted. I am not 100% certain of this, but it's to the best of my knowledge.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
