Help, 4 exams in one day, 3 at same time

Hello, I have a question, and I didn't really know who to ask it to, I thought that you guys may be of help. I have a German Listening and speaking exam ( One 45 mins and the other 50 by AQA) which both start at 9:00 along with my Computing exam (90mins by OCR) which also starts at 9:00. After this, I have a Geography exam that lasts 90 mins with AQA starting at 1:30. This is a total of 4 hours and 25 minutes of exams, meaning I will get no lunch or break between the exams, as it will go over the school hours. If I do these exams back to back i will finish at 2:05.

Could you guys tell me what is going to happen, from what I have seen on the internet people are put in isolation or sent to Teachers homes. Is there any possible way that the exam could be delayed to another day, or that I am given another exam on another day, or even if they were to take my mock grade instead?

Thank you.

You will be put in a room alone with an invigilator and would do each exam one by one. They will allow you to have 2-3 min breaks in between.
You are most likely to get a free lunch in a room on your own.
What flowers do you want on your grave bro?

Okay I see, but won't that mean the hours will go after school? Do they have the ability to do this?

Thanks

If you're implying tho that this will be "dead" hard for me, you are wrong.

You will be put in isolation. You won't be able to dothe exam on another day as you could potentially cheat by looking on the internet and knowing what could come up. I don't think they would send you to a teachers house. SOme of my friendds have had days with isolation. They had to take lunch and sit with invigilators in between exams so their friends couldn't tell them what was on the paper.

You'll be in isolation and you will be allowed breaks; no idea how long though. I've heard people had 10 minute breaks before, but the other day my friend was allowed an hour break between his exams (though this is AS Level) so -shrug-.

But you will be allowed a break of some quantity.

This happened to me too, all that will happen is that you're put into isolation but fear not as you will have a fifteen minute break where you're free to revise :smile: though you are not allowed out of the room and have to be escorted if you need the toilet.

Thank you, you are the first person to state some sort of source of their information here, which helps.

One thing, what do you mean by "days of isolation"? - That they stay at school?

Thanks again.
