I only had to handwrite for a 1st year class that was big enough to be a lecture. I think the exam probably required less than ~8 paragraphs total but that was enough. My school was pretty small so fortunately all the rest of my humanities classes were seminars we turned in reports for. I would’ve hated having to do those style exams for my entire degree, even without the handwriting issue.
I don’t think I’ve written anything longer than a couple paragraphs by hand at one time in the past 30 years. I’ll still take some notes here and there and I’ve been known to send a postcard or two if I’m traveling, but typing is so much faster anyway.
