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?

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.

TIA!!!! | 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.
