A conflict would be if 2 exams were schedules for the same day at the same time.

You might have luck with this one:

"Two consecutive examinations if first one is 3hrs long for December exams only."

"Luck" even though a deferred exam sucks (even more so?).

This is from MUGSI under the Personal Exam Timetable

PROBLEMS

The following types of problems should be reported to the Examinations Office Room 114, Gilmour Hall immediately after the posting of the final schedule or at least 10 working days prior to the date of the scheduled examination date.
  1. More than one examination scheduled at the same time.
  2. Three consecutive examinations sittings.
  3. Three examinations in one calendar day (midnight to midnight).
  4. In December only, two consecutive examinations if the first exam is 3 hours long.

More than one examination scheduled at the same time.
Three examinations in one calendar day (midnight to midnight).
Three consecutive examinations over two days.
Two consecutive examinations if first one is 3hrs long for December exams only.

Does anyone know what exactly the third criteria means??

The only possible one you could try for is the two consecutives if one is three ours long.

KIN 3M03 - (10th) : 12:30 pm

Psych 2AP3 - (10th) : 4:00 pm


So, its all down to if Kin is 3hrs or not.

What would happen if you were to report to the registar? Would the exams be deferred or rescheduled?

IF the conditions outlined above were met, they one of them would be deferred (usually written in Reading Week) so that the conflict no longer existed.

check your Personal Exam Timetable on MUGSI. its set up as calendar which makes it easier to see how much time you really have to cram between exams. also it tells you if you have a conflicting exams.
