Hello all,
I called TESU to inquire whether I can get an extension for the TECEP exams for the may term and the advisor said there is a possibility If you are suffering from some medical disability. I was told to email the registrar for the request with a medical note by the relevant practitioner. So I sent an email to the registrar's office to request for an extension but i still haven't received any response from them. I sent the email last friday on 22nd of July. Since today is the deadline I don't know whether I will be granted the extension.
The other option I have is to take the exams no matter ill prepared I am, since today is the last day anyway.
Should I wait for the response from tesu for the extension or take the exams ?

That's because TESU does not work on the weekends!
I would recommend you wait to hear back (unless you think you are prepared for any of the TECEPS and can pass them tonight). You should hear back from TESU on Monday, and I have no doubt they will approve your extension request.

Surprisingly, I have gotten a couple of responses on a Sunday. But, generally, TESU is not open on the weekends.

you should cram and try to at least complete microeconomics today if it is multiple choice.

I have covered around 40% content of the managerial tecep and around 60-70% for the other two. It's not too bad but it's not too good either.
Don't know how they handle the extension request sent before the deadline date but getting the response for approval after the date. Let's see.

Even though the passing score is high, you can attempt to cram for microeconomics with the IC flashcards.

What have you decided? If you are well versed and experienced in one of those course exams, go for it.
If not, I don't think a few quick hour cram sessions will be enough to pass... Unless you know those well.
If you are taking one of them, take the course exam with the subject materials you know most... GL!
