Disappointment and Painful Experience
Skyline M. shares a disappointing and painful experience with Sarah Baird, giving the assessment a rating of 1 star. According to Skyline, Sarah had promised to submit documents in a timely manner to help their daughter receive testing accommodations for the SAT and finals in her senior year. However, the results of the assessment report were inaccurate and surprising.
Misleading Expectations
The report's goals, as listed by Sarah, were to develop recommendations for interventions and compensatory strategies to improve the daughter's personal and academic success. However, the report's inaccuracies suggest that these goals were not met. Skyline's experience with Sarah Baird was marked by disappointment and frustration.
