FWIW one of my sibling's friends is a quadriplegic. In high school, they had a full-time aide that attended all classes, took notes and scribed outputs. Their exams were written in a separate room with a scribe and extra time. They finished a post-secondary degree and masters and with similar arrangements. With tech advancements, they have been able to use speech to text for some things. They has a career in her field. (I don't want to post too many more details for privacy reasons but if more details would help - send me a PM). Now all of this was outside the U.S. so the college board wasn't involved but if they could do stuff like that 25+ years ago, you'd hope that it would only be better now.
