Dyslexic students are applying for admission to medical school. In most cases they have worked hard in college, and their credentials are good (with the likely exception of a low score on Skills Analysis--Reading on the Medical College Admissions Test). In the past a number of well known dyslexics have made substantial contributions in various disciplines, including a few in medicine. Without appropriate assistance, many dyslexic students will be unable to compete successfully and to complete medical school. With appropriate assistance, however, they can complete medical school and become competent, creative professionals. Dyslexic medical students must be held to the same standards expected of other students. In our experience they require only (1) assistance with study skills, (2) limited academic tutoring in some courses, (3) extended time on written examinations, and (4) separate rooms for written examinations to avoid distractions. These special considerations on examinations are also allowed by the National Board of Medical Examiners.
诵读困难的学生正在申请医学院入学。在大多数情况下，他们在大学期间努力学习，并且他们的资历良好（医学院入学考试中的技能分析——阅读部分可能分数较低除外）。过去，一些知名的诵读困难者在各个学科都做出了重大贡献，包括医学领域的一些人。没有适当的帮助，许多诵读困难的学生将无法成功竞争并完成医学院学业。然而，有了适当的帮助，他们可以完成医学院学业并成为称职、有创造力的专业人士。诵读困难的医学生必须达到与其他学生相同的预期标准。根据我们的经验，他们只需要（1）学习技能方面的帮助，（2）某些课程的有限学术辅导，（3）笔试延长时间，以及（4）单独的笔试房间以避免干扰。美国国家医学考试委员会也允许在考试中给予这些特殊考虑。
