Any Private exam centres that would accept me now?

hi please help
You can contact your old school, I did and they had a policy of accepting previous students as private candidates. Idk about non-previous students. If that fails have a ring round other normal schools/exam centers. Then you could contact private places but they are notoriously expensive, especially for practicals.

I did and they don't. I went on a couple of private exam centres and their deadline ended a few days ago. One of them does on monday but i don't have £360 with me at the moment. Just got a job and i'd get that much in a month???

Could you not borrow it from parents? Or perhaps inquire if you could pay in installments. Best to ask them directly.

Shouldn't you have organised it earlier?

I would suggest ringing round given the urgency. Try all the centers in your area/where you can travel to. You may find that many schools don't mention that they allow external candidates. Mine didn't.

I don't think that is possible.

I have sat exams in 10 different centres

All of the private candidate centres required payment prior to processing the enteries. Use a credit card/ask for a loan from someone you know idk....
Most of the private schools have broken up for break

and all the comps etc. dont tend to accept private candidates.
