Why is College Board changing its policy regarding how extended time is used by students? 

College Board is committed to providing students with a fair and equitable testing experience which includes providing appropriate accommodations and supports to students who need them. Over the past several years, we have received clear feedback from students and educators that students don't always need all their approved extended time, and they would like to be able to move on to the next section when they are ready. As we have moved to the digital delivery of our assessments, we want to ensure that we leverage the benefits of technology and improve the student testing experience. The individual timing provided by Bluebook allows us to implement this policy that has been requested by students and educators.
