The examinations are scheduled to begin at 10:00 AM. Access to the exam buildings will close at 09:45 AM, 15 minutes before the start time. Participants arriving after this deadline will not be admitted.
To ensure a smooth entry process, specific arrival times have been assigned to participants, which are indicated on their admission slips. Candidates are strongly advised to arrive at the designated time.
Participants must bring the following documents to the exam:
