Hi! Here is my 2 cents. When I was in graduate school, about 12
years ago, we were allowed to use our devices but had to prove
that they had no files on them. Back then it was the braille 'n
speak and we would copy files to a disk and go into the file menu
to show that the braille'n speak was empty. That seems like it
would be more difficult to do with the braillenote since there
are so many folders and places to hide files.
Another way we took tests was in a room by ourselves on a
computer with voice which had been emptied of files. Often these
kinds of issues must be worked out way ahead of time. It looks
like you have to go and take your chances. I have had a lot of
experience taking tests and all kinds of things can go wrong.
Once I took a civil service test with a "scribe" who was allergic
to dogs and read the test with her head out the window. That was
distracting. All I can say is that if things don't go well,
raise your issues before the grades come back. If you wait till
then and don't do well it will just look like sour grapes.
