The Ministry warns that Microsoft programs can create problems for written exams for students with Mac computers.

Users who have updated the programs to the latest version may experience the programs running slowly, freezing and crashing. This means that the examinees are delayed in their work and that parts of the answers risk being lost, write the Agency for Education and Quality and the Agency for IT and Learning in a notice to schools.

      Both Microsoft Office and LibreOffice seem like a lot of moving parts unless the goal is to rate people on desktop publishing. I mean, anything that permits for text entry should work.
