"Hakalot" are called ACCOMMODATIONS in today's parlance,  not dispensations .
Of course they are intended for all types of evaluation and assessment
and not merely the bagrut.
In fact, we must try them out on the kids just in order to request
them and get them approved!   And what is the sense of  doing
something for the first time (operating a tape, having an oral
tester...) during a final, national, matriculation  exam?!

ANd that is among the problems -- it is problematic enough dealing
with these accommodations for tests -- but some pupils need/demand/ask
for/ should have ..... the hatamot for every quiz .  ANd now that we
get paid for it,  the advisers also feel freer about demanding  it.
It gets to be  quite a burden and  often out of proportion.
