Deferring Defered Exam

Hello,

I have a deferred exam on Monday. However I am quite sick at the moment and don’t know if I will recover in time. If possible I plan to sit the exam, however as of right now I can barely get out of bed.

I was able to get a medical certificate that covers Monday’s date in case I can’t sit the exam.

I know you can apply to further defer an exam. But are the conditions on this stricter? How likely is it to be approved?

If anyone has been in this position, advice would be greatly appreciated.
