Abstract
With the enactment of the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendment Act of 2008 (ADAAA, P.L. 110-325) and its accompanying regulations, more undergraduate students with learning disabilities will be able to obtain accommodations in college and on standardized testing. With these accommodations, it is likely that more and more students with learning disabilities will graduate with a strong academic record and be admitted to law school. So, it is timely that Leah Christensen has written a book to help law students who learn differently.
