If your exam is scheduled very early in the morning, especially 6:30 or 7:00, you cannot afford to delay or start looking for transport when it is already late. Start by checking how long it takes to reach your center from your home. If the trip will take more than an hour, you should plan to leave the house much earlier than usual.
In some cases, if your center is far or difficult to reach early in the morning, it may even be better to find a small hotel or lodge near the center and stay there one night before your exam. It may seem stressful, but it is better than risking arriving late and completely missing the exam.
