[blindlaw] question for those who have taken the D.C. barrecently

[Rod Alcidonis]

Mike, you need to request for an exception, and suggest ways to make it 
secure. Some states allow for the laptop to be deposited night before for 
inspection.

Hi Leslie,

I thought about that. The packet specifically says no laptops. I guess 
they're afraid of people cheating or something.

I did think about using my BrailleNote and hooking it up to a printer; but, 
they may consider it to be similar to a laptop. But, I guess we could say a 
braillewriter is a typewriter (on the request for accomodations form, it 
asks yes or no if the applicant is using a typewriter.)

Hi Mike:

Have you considered using a notetaker or laptop for the essay portion of the
exam?
