Self-study
Hey yall, I've got an ADHD diagnosis from 5+ years, and can make a decent case for accomodations, however I've never had extra time on a test in uni, or utilized accomodations in that way. For those who are studying for a distant test date, do you study under the assumption that you will get accomodations?

You should absolutely apply for accommodations ASAP, expecting that a letter from your psych or PCP will suffice if they're competent. With a distant test date I'd actually say your question is moot b/c you should be focused heavily on untimed work anyway. That said, I think it's safe to assume you'll get the accommodations as long as you're applying for them early enough that you'll get the answer back in time to swap back if for whatever reason you end up needing to go through appeals.
I am an in person tester and I will be applying for and using accomadations.
