hello everyone! I don't know if this is helpful at all, but my law school gave me an accommodation to take my exams on a special computer they provided in a disability lab, they install jaws on it. instead of exam soft. Exam soft it's not very accessible at least it wasn't when I was there. Didn't want to deal with the additional stress. Hope that helps and you can get a workaround or accommodation if you need it!
