Know the name<\/strong> AND course code <\/strong>of the courses you\u2019re taking. Some courses have similar names but the course codes are always different and knowing this information will ensure that you\u2019re in the right exam room at the correct time on the right day.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t\tCheck every version of the exam time table posted.<\/span> <\/strong>Check the draft timetable(s) as well as the FINAL<\/strong> timetable. Just because your examination date and time has never changed before does not mean it may not happen.
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

BE VIGILANT!<\/strong> The exam timetable with so many lines of information can be hard to read so using a ruler<\/strong> to assist in reading the exam times and dates correctly could be helpful.<\/p>\n

Check the exam timetable yourself. <\/strong>Do not depend on other students to tell you when your exam is. They could be wrong!<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
