Sounds like a very different experience than what I had. SATs were on Saturday, at a different HS. There were various HS's to choose from, depending on where you lived. I went to a magnet HS (sounds like you did too), so kids were from all over, and they took tests at whatever school was near their house. Within each test center, we were then broken into rooms based on last name, IIRC. I typically knew only 1 or 2 kids in the room I was in (the rest were from other HS's), and would have had no idea whether any of my classmates had extra time.
Even in your situation, you wouldn't have known that a kid who took the SAT with you didn't also take it again, at a different test center, with extra time. Lots of kids take it more than once, and you can choose where to take it. Kids tried to keep this stuff on the down-low, either due to shame (because they actually had a disability) or to hide their undeserved accommodation (because they didn't have a disability).
