[nabs-l] Myitlab... The never-ending battle

I've tried having them e-mail the assignments but the response I got  
was something along the lines of Oh...  We can't get the tests from  
myitlab, and the reader thing I also talked to my adviser about and  
they for some reason determined that a reader would not be appropriate  
for me, and that I should just go to the computer lab at the drc, so  
that's when I figured test it with safari and voiceover, and that's  
when I got the same results that I did with jaws.
They then tried putting window-eyes on the computer at school, and I  
could arrow down the page, but someone would still end up having to  
click the buttons to go to the next questions, so now I'm fighting to  
get jaws 9 back on the system, and I'm starting to wonder what the  
point of it is, as I get the same results described in my initial  
message.
