IEP pros and cons

As an instructor who deals with students with disabilities and a mother of a child with Asperger's syndrome I find the IEP's to be a negative and more focus should be on a positive note.
Again teaching medical students who have to sit for a major certification exam at the end of their courses I feel that bending my teaching styles to accommodate them only sets them up for failure in the end. They may get through the classes because accommodation were made to help them succeed, however there are no accommodations made during the national certification. No one is going to read them the test questions, no extra time is given and when they get out in the real world no one is going to be there to hold their hand and guide them through life.
