I hope everyone is doing great!

As I prep for the DAT, I've been looking into the 'processes' involved for me taking the exam as a type 1 diabetic and what I need to do to make sure all is okay with items such as insulin pump/having a juice for potential low blood sugar, etc. I know they have to be pretty tight on rules (no phones etc.) but I just want to make sure all would be okay if for instance my insulin pump was alerting me on an upcoming low blood sugar and I had to click the button to clear it out (as it looks like a cell phone).

I know I can't be the only T1 out there that has or is taking the DAT so I just want to make sure that all goes smooth and well on test day 🙂

Thanks as always!!

I didn't have type 1 diabetes but I had another circumstance where I needed special accommodations. You have to fill out this form and email them: https://www.ada.org/~/media/ADA/Education and Careers/Files/dat_accommodation_request.pdf?la=en
