 Hey,
I strongly encourage you to just "do it" like Nike. Testing for anyone is hard but with dyslexia it can be even harder. You have the option to use extended time and use a less restricted environment if you request it. Use the acommodations that you have. There's nothing wrong with that. The only person stopping you from success is you. What's the worse that could happen...? You may have to retake it but on the brighter side you know what your weaknesses are.Don't hold yourself back from success. Once you get your GED you canapply to a community college (no weight on GPA or SAT scores) and gain additional skills. Under the Disability Act it is required that you get academic acommondations. You will not fail but you do have to put in the work. Think about what you like to do on a regular basis and place it in a career field you may enjoy. What you do today affects tomorrow...Good Luck!
