Proper notification of cancellation must be given when?

• A. 7 days prior to the scheduled exam or 24 hours for emergencies
• B. 24 hours prior to the scheduled exam only
• C. 7 days prior to the scheduled exam only
• D. 2 days prior to the scheduled exam

Answer: (A)

Timely cancellation is about scheduling efficiency and fairness for all test-takers. The board expects you to give notice seven days before your scheduled exam so they have enough time to fill the slot if you can’t make it. There’s an important exception for emergencies: in those cases, a 24-hour notice is still acceptable. This combination ensures the exam calendar runs smoothly while offering flexibility when something unavoidable comes up. The other options don’t fit because they miss either the standard seven-day lead time or the emergency exception (or both), which would create scheduling problems or disadvantage other candidates.
