It was a long time ago but I went through the dyslexia assement routine at 15 so I could have extra time for written exams. Was OK, took about an hour, doing "puzzles" of the what comes next varity, short term memory tests, repeating strings of numbers back to tester, turning them backwards etc, a reading and comprehension test. Must have been some writing but I can't remember that bit. Wasn't scary anyway. Hope your son gets on Ok and its usefull for him in getting extra help at college.
