It has to be 3 exams within 24 hours from midnight to midnight.
So you would have to have all 3 exams on the 11th.

That's interesting, so basically if you have 3 exams all on the same day its a conflict.

So would a 7:30, a 9 am and a 12 exam not be a conflict but that's really shitty.

Sweet, latest is the 14th. I have them like everyday the week before, though, but it's worth it!

yay I have 8th 9th and 22nd, which means... Vacation in between!
Btw guys its a really good idea to go to those last minute places like cuba, mexico, before xmas, if you have a long gap between exams.. usually cheaper.

11, 15, 16 Lots of time to study and they're not spread out over 2 weeks... I hate that.

Nope, I'm taking that second semester. Hopefully next semester the schedule doesn't follow suit.

It would have to be a combination of 9am, 12:30pm, 4pm and 7:30pm all in one day
(I think those are the times that all exams start)


If you have extremely special circumstances (maybe you have a really late exam one night, followed by a really early exam another night, and you have to commute for 2 hours each way and cant get a drive/stay the night near McMaster), they MIGHT make an exception. I doubt it though.

it depends on ur faculty office, dean... and the case u make abt it for sure. i know someone whose 3 exams didn't fit in the 'midnight to midnight' but rather there were 2 and then 1 the next morning, and she got one moved...

Ok, cool.

You also have a Doppelganger who is taking it now, just a heads up.

I had one changed, once. I can't remember when though. I've been here for a long-ass time.

I think profs look over the dates for exams, so if they have a conflict that's the reason why they end up getting changed.

I believe the final schedule comes out in November, around the first week?

.....I don't know what to say :o
Whoa, timetable twins!
I have 2 on the 9th, 1 on the 14th and 2 on the 18th!

Kind of happy to end early, kind of dreading the double-exam days
