Hello,
I took chemistry 4 years ago and I remember McGraw-Hill connect not being fully  accessible then. I had a meeting with them about this issue and they said they would work on making their materials more accessible. I’m not sure if there has been any progress since then but I surely hope so. my suggestion is to contact the company to see if they would let you test out The materials online for free to make sure it is accessible before having to pay for it. If they’re not willing to do that, ask them if they’re willing to give you a full refund if the materials end up not being accessible.
Hope that they are willing to work with you.
Warm regards,
Lily
