    A: A 9am start time would include 15 minutes BEFORE the exam start time, so supervision would begin at 8:45am

    Q: if the VM classes are included in your year level can you cancel only part of the year level?
    A: You would need to edit the exam event after it is created to remove the VM classes. A exam cancellation event will automatically be created when the exam schedule is created - you can edit this in Daily under the 'Events' tab to exclude the VM classes from this cancellation event.
