how can I sit a functional skills exam maths/english level 2 asap for free?

i was diagnosed with adhd a few months ago and I missed papers for the exam unfortunately due to my carelessness, I am now medicated but colleges/schools start next week.

I have all the gcses I need but I need a maths and english qualification for the btec I want to do, I heard functional skills exam takes 5 days to receive.

would it be possible to ask the college and see if they will accommodate towards me if I can explain my situation?

Definitely always let them know what has happened to you and they would probably see your English and math grades based on your ability to speak or give you a quick test. Don’t worry school still accept a week after they acc open because that what happened to a couple of my friends when they wanted to change schools
