People with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or dyslexia will receive specialized assistance in public examinations held in the state. The new law that guarantees the benefit was published in the Official State Gazette (DOE) this Tuesday (9).
Among the measures planned is the granting of up to 1h30 of additional time to answer questions. In addition, support resources may be requested, such as help with reading the test and filling out answers. The test may also be carried out in a separate room, depending on the candidate's needs.

To request specialized assistance, the candidate must present a medical report that proves the diagnosis and explains what adaptations are possible for taking the test.
According to the text, the rule becomes valid 90 days after publication. Furthermore, the rules only apply to contests promoted by the State of Minas Gerais and will not apply to contests that are already underway.
The body responsible for the competition must provide professionals
If the responsible body does not have the necessary technologies to comply with the measure, it must provide a professional reader to assist in reading the tests and a professional transcriber to assist in writing and filling out the response card.
According to the law, the intention is to reduce difficulties that may arise during the exam, ensuring that the assessment is carried out in a more fair and accessible way.
