Recovering from illness, what to do

[Bemily]

Dd was quite ill at the beginning of the week and is now taking antibiotics. While the infection seems to be clearing the ab's make her nauseous and I don't know what to do for the best. She says she will manage the test, but is it better to go for the late test? Or get it over with if she's mostly okay? Help!!

It would be best to apply for the late test.She might not feel well in the exam and that could bring down her score.

Does anybody know whether in terms of appeal it would be held against us if we sent her when not 100% recovered?

Thank you, I suspected as much. What happens if she's still not fully recovered for the late test? Do I send her to that regardless and hope for appeal in case of a bad score?

If she is still sick on the late test I think you would need documented evidence from a doctor.

poor you bemily, that is tough. When is the late test? How much time does she have to recover?

[hermanmunster]

hopefully there is decent gap between the tests - some of these 'orrible bugs take a while to get over

Take the late test - at least she might feel better then.

If she's still off-colour, you'll have evidence available for any appeal as you must have been to the GP to get the antibiotics.

Thanks everyone. The late test is on Wednesday.
