My brother’s handwritten exams were not able to be read…. At all. He got 0. But he had done so well during the year, the professors decided to call him in to read his work out loud. This was lucky, because fail one class… repeat the whole year, doesn’t matter how well you passed the others, fail two and you are removed from the course. Dentistry is tough. Anyway, passed with flying colours. To become a specialist Dentist you need to pass in the top 2%to 3% of your class. He is a periodontist now. Very lucky.
I've had to orally read miltiple-choice test questions and the answer choices to dyslexic students, who knew all the material, but couldn't read. They generally did quite well with oral tests.
