go and see your exams co-ordinator at school/college, i'm pretty sure you'll have to be put in isolation but it's possible to sit all of your exams so don't worry, just make sure you make your school/college aware of your problem! :smile:

You just end up in purda and do some in the afternoon.
For GCSE I had 6 hours of exams on four occasions because of clashes like that, it is actually really really common.

Mate it's not the end of the world. Just let your school know and on that day you'll be in isolation. My brother had 3 exams on his birthday!!

In between exams you won't be able to communicate with any other students, you'll just be kept seperated from everyone else.

Oh don't worry about it! Loads of people have clashes - I had maths, further maths and physics on the same day last year. I also had two exams clashing on another day, and another clash two days after that. What happened to me was I just sat the papers one after each other - unless the combined time for both papers was >3hrs, in which case I was guarded over lunch and sat one in the afternoon.

There's not much you can do about it. Just revise loads and try not to get too stressed. :smile:

You have to do them all at the same time. Don't worry it looks well good on your UCAS.

Yep. There were two of us so we just ate lunch and had an exam cramming session. Nothing to worry about.

It's OK. I have this next monday - Maths C3 (1 h 30), English lit (2h 45 :eek:

), and biology (1 h 30).

There's another clash on the Friday of that week.

I get a 15 minute break between exams :redface:

, and I have to do one in a separate room - I'm escorted between them, and can't talk to anyone.

It's actually all right as long as you remember to bring food for the breaks.
If you do it alone, you have the advantage of being able to look around and stretch your neck without anyone thinking you're cheating. :smile:
