Exam Clashes
Two papers that clash and result in a total exam time of three hours or less is known as a follow-on. You will complete one after the other, without leaving the exam room – though this will be confirmed on the day.
Two papers that clash and result in a time of over three hours is known as an exam clash.
You will be supervised and isolated from other candidates from the end of the morning exam until the start of the afternoon exam. Upon completion of your morning exam, it is essential that you remain in your seat until collected by the invigilator to be taken to the isolation room. You will not be permitted to leave the isolation room so you should bring a packed lunch and drink. You must not be in possession of any electronic devices during this period.
One paper will be displaced and this will show on your timetable. If you drop one of these subjects, which results in you no longer having a clash, you must inform the Exams Office (1F117) as the displaced paper will return to its original time.
If you have three or more exams in one day totalling over 6 hours, a paper can be moved to the following day, however as per JCQ instructions, this is only done in very exceptional circumstances.
