If you don't mind doing it, you can reverse engineer it to remove the VM detections / make a stealthy VM.
Some of them use state of the art obfuscation to make this a PIA, others are not that good[0]
The one I've taken a look at(forgot it's name) was using VMProtect and had a competently written VM detection routine. It wasn't my exam so I recommended that they use a kvm switch instead of fumbling around with vm hiding tools.

This was something I attempted, but couldn't get it to work. At some point we just have to refuse.
Some of my classes use LockDown browser as well and these are computer science courses so there was a lot of pushback due to privacy concerns, so I can sympathize with your viewpoint. Although a majority of students don't cheat, it's still awful that the behavior of a few dictates how the others are perceived.
