Unlocking Leaving Cert Exam Success with Dragon Voice Recognition Training

The Problem with Voice Recognition:

Students recommended Dragon Professional for state exams often lack the expertise to use it effectively.

Subject-specific vocabulary and abbreviations are not included in Dragon, causing errors in spelling and interpretation during dictation, potentially leading to reduced marks and points.

These challenges can also lead to inefficiency, frustration, and reduced exam performance overall.

 

​​

Terms and Conditions:
Custom vocabularies comply with exam regulations because Dragon software does not include predictive features. The student must know the subject matter in order to dictate it. The software is most effective for students with strong verbal reasoning skills and clear articulation. The software requires a laptop running Windows 10 or higher that is in good working condition and free from technical issues. For optimal performance, it is recommended to use a laptop with at least 16 GB of RAM and a processor such as an Intel iCore 5 or higher. The company accepts no responsibility or liability for technical malfunctions, software issues, hardware failures, or any other disruptions that may arise during an exam setting. Ensuring the equipment functions correctly and meets the necessary requirements is the sole responsibility of the user. Dragon Professional voice recognition software is not included in the purchase of this course.
