Students are failing AP tests because the College Board can’t handle HEIC images

I've experienced that with AirDrop too, but that's because the iPhone knows the Mac can view them.

Also you don't need an external tool -- Preview will convert HEIC to JPEG for you relatively instantly, even in batch. (Though I really do wish the phone would ask first if you want to convert, when Airdropping.)

I'll try Preview next time instead, thanks! iMazing works fine for the actual functionality but has some sort of bug where it won't re-open if I closed it without force quitting it. Minor but annoying.

That's likely an issue with iMazing not properly handling apple's saved ui state mechanism. You could try checking if holding the option key reveals a "quit and close all windows" option in the app's eponymous menu item, or press and hold the Shift key while opening the app to forget previous UI state.

If you don't care for apps to remember their previous windows and ui state, you can disable this mechanism in the settings app: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204005#appresume
