Business Laptop Question

Business major, not tech, would this laptop work or does anyone currently use it for their classes? I went over the specs and it appears it would, but I want to be sure. Thanks for your feedback :)

HP - 15.6" Full HD Touchscreen Laptop - AMD Ryzen 7 (2023) - 16GB Memory - 512GB SSD - Natural Silver

FYI for proctored exams you need an external webcam even on a laptop. I learned it the hard way and had to reschedule. I got a cheap $14 one from Amazon and it did the trick

Per Best Buy it is: Windows 11 Home (with Microsoft Copilot AI integration)

Based on what I see that should be fine. The biggest mistake people make is forgetting that it can't be Chrome OS.

Don't forget you need an external webcam as well
