Long story short: do you people have any tricks/methods for faster print reading and "pen" writing as a VI?
Deepenment: the logistics of using my phone camera to read print and to follow the pen tip while I write \[as to assert it's readable\] have worked so far. However, recent events like misreading due to focus issues and resorting to mental calculations to refrain from writing (thus wasting time) had led me to committing major mistakes on tests.
So I'm seeking new ways of doing stuff. Is learning Braille the only certain way out of it? Especially when it comes to Math-related contexts? Or do you guys have any tips you can give me?
Thanks in advance.

Own up to being blind recognize it and get alternative testing accomodations. You won’t be a burden. If you need it you need it.
Learn assistive tech.

I mean requesting tests in a digital form, and using screen readers and touch typing would be pretty reasonable. I do all my "writing" that way.

Yes, that'd be ideal, but I was hoping for more "innocuous" ways, as I have this paranoia of being marked as a nuisance or problematic by professors. I know I'm not helping my case being this way, so I'll pay the bill for it... (as it's already the case, haha)

I’ve occasionally made use of a tablet for that pen writing feel. Reading I recommend practicing using text to speech. Once you get used to it you can read faster by ear than you could by sight
