Hi. Ok let me see how it goes through this channel and will let you know any updates. I'm pretty confident given my previous track record with these exams we can get this fixed and rescheduled fairly promptly. When I tried these exams on the beta program I was really shocked I managed to pass first time, I was expecting these types of niggles, so I'm not surprised we have encountered something like this. Unless they test for screen reader compatibility often, I don't think they will know of any issues until someone encounters it on a live test. Thanks. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: Billy Irwin Sent: Monday, August 28, 2023 12:53 PM To: Mailing list for blind system administrators Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: Heads up: Problems with Pearson Vue exams and Jaws Hi Andrew, I too have a contact that I could share off list should you need it. He too is visually impaired. Good luck and keep us updated.

Tried to take a Microsoft exam today but for some reason none of the content of the test was speaking even though the check-in process worked. I last got through some tests in January, so either a Jaws or Pearson test update has broken things. When the test launched all I could hear was Chromium Window. I have a contact in the accommodations team so will try and push to get this sorted and will let you guys know here any updates. Thanks.

Hi. Right now all emails are going through Office365 Exchange Online protection. I did check out the delivery info for your email and it said it had been accepted by Gmail so not sure what is going on there. To be honest if Microsoft and Gmail can't talk to each other nicely we have no hope.

Just to alert you, I didn't receive your message, but I did get Billy's--yours was beneath it, so I figured out what was up in terms of the correspondence, but all indications are that I'm not receiving all list mail. It wasn't in my spam folder either. I hate these sortsof issues--they're always the worst to troubleshoot. On 8/28/23, Billy Irwin wrote:

Hi. Do you know where the time gap is by looking at the Received headers? I'm guessing its between EOP and Google. Andrew. -----Original Message----- From: Jackie McBride Sent: Monday, August 28, 2023 11:25 PM To: Mailing list for blind system administrators Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: Heads up: Problems with Pearson Vue exams and Jaws And at 3:24 pm I finally received your message, Andrew.

Hi. This eventually got sorted and I was able to get my 3rd exam today. This AZ400 exam was very hard and relied a lot on tables which I couldn't use my normal workflow of writing notes down on another device to get the information in a way I needed it, so I think I lost a few points to that.
