Can’t wait to graduate so I don’t have to run Respondus and keep dealing with this crap

    Wait, are universities still using Respondus?

    I feel for you. It was used a lot during the beginning of the pandemic, but I thought it was dropped by now.

      Some professors kept the online exams for convenience (theirs and for the students depending on the type of exam), but did in presence in a university class, they dropped the recording but kept the lockdown environment so you cannot cheat even with your laptop

        Ah, wow. So some exams are happening online, even though classes are in person! There goes a combination I had not thought about. It is annoying to still need Respondus though, even if I understand why

      My professors use it for in-person tests. I just have a separate boot partition on my MacBook for it.

        Interesting (and annoying). I imagined that most exams went back to the usual pen and paper or laboratory, but there were tests written on laptops and in class long before the pandemic. I had forgotten about those!
