Where's my exam located, exactly?
I have my schedule and the legend from the registrar's website, but how easy is it to find the actual exam room? For example, I know my chem exam's in conhall, but will they have signs to the actual room or how does it work? What do the numbers mean (ex. DBAC (8) )?

There will be signs all over the place once you're in the building, there's NO way you can get lost.
and if worse comes to worst, you can just follow the swarms of people. xD

as for DBAC, walk in & go LEFT. That's all I know, lol it should be in one of those little gym things. There will be signs, no worries. As for the "(8)", that's the section that you'll be sitting in. The room is split into different sections for different examinations, so make sure you go to section 8.

DBAC is the David Braley Athletic Centre (aka. the gym).
8 means ur writting in section 8 of the large sports hall (aka. the gym).
The gym gets divided up into different areas for different exams. Yours happens to be in section 8.

1. Go to DBAC.
2. Follow the signs/crowds.

Which of the room location do you follow?

The one on the Registras Website or the one on your personal exam timetable on MUGSI?

They are both the same thing; the personal timetable is simply a summary of your exam times as collected off of the Registrar's master schedule. Go with your personal timetable.

It's the same thing. The personal one on Mugsi is safer to go with I guess. But it should be the exact same information, the one on Mugsi is just a little less messy than the exam timetable on the Registrar's website.

HEHE! Thanks.

I actually figured that out after... The reason why the confusion even happened was because I forgot my alphabets.
