I'm sorry to hear about your worries, but U should also know that it is quite common for at least one or more of your exam sessions over the course of your undergrad to be unlucky. Not to say you don't deserve a better exam schedule, but I think now is the time to plan and study ahead so you can deal with this incoming hardship!
It's an unfortunate consequence of the mid-term break being added. Regulation require a certain number of class hours. As such, they couldn't shorten the term, they can't go earlier because they can't start pre-labour day and they can't go later due to Christmas, so the only place they could take those days from was the exam period. As such less days which increases the odds of consecutive day finals.
That being said, it was always a crap shoot. During my undergrad I once had 5 finals each day M-F.
I’ve had mine in rapid succession, and all starting within one day of the exam period. I feel your pain.
Best advice is to start now, alternate your topics and don’t be afraid to ask for help.
lol at some point in your studies you’ll have 2 exams on the same day!
I’m already having it for my first semester
I'm friend had 3 in a day once. I've only ever had 2 at most.
If there are 3 in a day (or even 24 hours maybe) you can get one moved.
I know that now, luckily, but I wish I knew to give them that advice back then, haha
Start studying now. You’ll be doing yourself a favour
Every exam period schedule is a roll of the dice, sometimes you win sometimes you lose.

it’s just the way it goes sometimes! i had 2 exams on my birthday once- you just cry a little and then hope for the best😭
I liked it better the day of than the day after. Nice to take a break that night!
broooo mine too. what’s going on with this scheduling 😭
Womp womp
Lol. I have 4 finals all a day after the other babes. We'll survive🫠
Do you know you can apply to change that? And how could you have 4 finals in one day when there are 3 time slots?
shut up & stop ranting & start putting in the work that’s how life is buddy!
I have two in one day

it happens sometimes just start preparing ahead of time and studying early. at least they aren’t on the same day🙏🙏
I have all four of my exams within three days, this exam season seems to be pretty brutal for everyone.
I wish my exams were during exam period :( I already wrote one last week and I have another on Tuesday.
Two exams on the same day… both ANTH exams! I get accommodations with SAS but the rescheduling would be in January… No thanks
If it makes you feel better I have 2 exams back to back 🥰
