If you are or are not, you would still need to contact them about it.

So why not just go ahead and give them a call?

Are you sure? I've come across this question before in my own studies, and I was told that the 3 exams have to be within the 24 hour period. By that, technically that's not a hardship, just a damn hard schedule.

But yes do call. Most profs are lenient enough to even consider a change in schedule. Worst case you can always call a sick day and get a note, but with that most likely you're writing an exam well after, which kind of sucks.

I had one at 15:30, 18:30, then 8:00 the next morning but didn't call in time and had to write them all at the allotted slots. It was a hurtbag. Thank god I passed.

looks like you have 2 exams within 24 hours and 3 exams within 26.5 hours. so it's a fail

that does not qualify for an exam hardship. You have to start and finish 3 exams within 24 hours. Your third exam starts 24 hours after the first exam starts, therefore you are out of luck.
