The new timetable now operates from Monday, April 22, 2024, through Saturday, May 18, 2024. This change gives students an extra week to study, so they may approach their exams with confidence and preparedness.
What This Signifies for You

During the Exam Days
- Arrive Early: Try to get to the exam location well in advance of the appointed hour. This enables you to comfortably settle in before the exam starts and can help lessen any pre-exam anxiety.
