In plain words

Disabled candidates in the college entrance exam can apply for a Braille paper, a large-print paper, exemption from the foreign-language listening section, a separate exam room, hearing aids and wheelchairs in the room, and extended exam time. These are not given automatically: you must submit a written application by the date set by your province, with a second-generation or later disability certificate attached. If you disagree with the result, you can apply to the provincial department of education for a review.
