[QUOTE="JMK1954, post: 2045064, member: 352098"] The most important thing is that you talk to the people in charge of what are termed 'access arrangements', explain your situation and see what's possible. Doing your exams in a smaller room in order to make sure that fewer other students are disturbed by any sort of medical issue is fairly common. Some people have anxiety issues or epilepsy and in a smaller room staff can get to an individual and take any necessary action faster. Smaller exam rooms seem to provoke less anxiety for most of us. It might be worth doing a blood test for the examinations officer to demonstrate what is involved. I found myself explaining a Libre sensor to an examinations officer last week, as one type 1 lad is using them. They won't know anything unless you explain things to them clearly. (That's always been my experience, not just with regard to exams.) [/QUOTE]
