Information on timetabling and venues

Conventions used in examination timetabling

Students are advised to note the following conventions used in compiling the examination timetable:

  • Students at all levels may have examinations on consecutive days.
  • Sub-honours students may have two sub-honours examinations on one day.
  • Honours students will not normally have two honours examinations on the same day.

While every effort is made to ensure that honours students, in particular, do not have exams over three or more consecutive days, the complexities of the timetable may mean that this is necessary in certain individual cases.
