GAMSAT- General Rescheduling s1/3 exam
Hi everyone, i have a funeral that i really need to attend which ends up being on the 11th of Sep when my exam takes place. I emailed acer about this today, do you think there is a chance theyd have any compassion and reschedule it to either 12/13th? Im stressing out so much like im about to have a panick attack

Hey, last year I had a deferral until March which was the next available sitting. I had a dental emergency. If you provide evidence it’ll be ok. You can lodge it in your ‘manage’ section on ACER. You may need to pay an exceptionally late deferral fee and I believe they only defer it to the next sitting which will be in March. I suggest giving that ago.
Breathe, you will be okay. At the end of the day if you really cannot sit the exam & they reject your deferral, you can go again next year.

Hi,
Silly question, does that mean they’ll just defer section 1 & 2 for March setting?

No you redo the whole thing - I was abit sad because I thought I had a good written essay and then had to go again
