Well
For my trial exam for maths (aka my worst subject), I thought it started at 9, when it really started at 8. So I got a call at like 7.45 from my friend asking where I am. And I'm like, at home burh. And then she's like "awks we're going into the hall, get yo ass here". Literally ran there, got on the train in my PJ's.
And reached there late. Still managed to do reasonably well despite losing an entire hour. After that my rank was also gg.

You can't sit the exam again. I think the mark you receive will be based on the internal marks your school submitted :/

My friend in bio, got caught in traffic, came into exam 30 min late, finished 30 early.
Assuming your friend attends the same school as you: "Ruse bro, bio ez state rank gg", probably only finished 30 minutes early cause he got bored of checking his answers lol.

If misreading time table is the reason I doubt any marks be awarded.

If otherwise, we should all bail from our exams and let our internal rankings carry us to a 99 atar

Unfortunately this is a terrible situation to be in and I'll avoid telling you what would happen. Report it and move on to your other exams. Not much more you could do unless you could further your case of excuse towards the exam.

You know... if that ever happened to me...

... I'd be glad my father and by extension all his friends are doctors.

Yeah give yourself quick food posioning, and take photos/keep evidence
worst comes to worst spray shit (or an artificial) everywhere on the toilet seat the walls the floor and mix it with vomit. haul ass to doctor at 5 am, pay 300$ for meds + doctor cert.

downside: if you any anymore exams you can't take it

upside: if your internal marks are glorious this is perfect

i am a trained professional in this. i managed to withhold my yr 8 assignment for a month and not lose any marks. (ps it helps to have cool parents who back you up with this stuff)

OP... why.

Um, well I guess there's not much you can do. Everywhere, including the front of the timetable, there is a disclaimer saying that it is your responsibility to view the timetable carefully and failure to do so will result in a zero examination mark.

You have two options: either fake super sick and try and get away with it, and meanwhile sacrifice revision for your other subjects, or just move on.

If you are picking the first option, GET A MEDICAL CERTIFICATE ASAP. Go to your doctor and be so dramatic that they'll be convinced that you're ill. Then apply to BOSTES ASAP. Then again, you're still at risk of BOSTES assuming that your 'illness' is not significant enough for misadventure, in which case all your efforts will be for nothing...

I really hope you have 12 units.
