Hi,

Sorry for the cross-post, but I'd like some advice from all viewpoints.

I will be taking the Arecc Level I course and it's being taught locally.  It 
will last one day and the test will be taken on the same day.  I haven't 
been to school for years, (grin).

The material will be presented using PowerPoint slides and the sighted folks 
will be getting a copy of this material on paper.

How do you think I should handle the situation?  Should I take notes using 
the BrailleSense Plus?  Should I record the presentation usinng the BSP or 
cassette machine?  Is it possible to convert the material ahead of time into 
text so I could read it with my BSP?  Does anyone have a text version of the 
material?  (I'm assuming the material you might have from the online version 
of the course would cover the same things as the course I'm taking.)

Any advice would be welcome.
