[Nfbc-info] taking the GRE using JAWS

[Michael Hingson]

Lisa,

I suggest you contact our National office about this.  The courts already
dealt with this concerning the LSAT.  So, there is a precedent.  Contacting
the National Center will get you the help and support you should have to
resolve this. 


Best,


Michael Hingson

Subject: [Nfbc-info] taking the GRE using JAWS

Hello, 

 

I'm completing paperwork to request accommodations to take the GRE Revised
General Test. I have just learned that JAWS is not available. I have been
informed that ETS uses their own screen reading software. The woman who
shared this information stated, "It was an awful experience". What have
other JAWS users done to take the GRE using screen reading software? 

 

I'm not thrilled about the idea of utilizing a reader and scribe. 

 

Thank you for your thoughts and for sharing your experiences and advice. 

 

Best,

Lisa Irving
