dammit I hate this stuff, I'm trying to book an exam and its weirding me out on time zones
its an expensive exam (around $800)

I'm trying to book an exam and these are the options, I'm in Toronto for all intensive purposes,
I thought that was eastern time -5 hours , but its asking for UTC
what do I choose -5 or -4 (-4 is atlantic time






but Im confused a bit



time now is 430


but also I'm seeing this



if it helps google says this

Just Google ‘what time is it now in UTC’, Toronto should be -4 hrs but double check it that way.

And get there an hour early just in case.

HEY !!!
Ya I did, it said UTC is -4

Its remote, via laptop and proctored so I sign in 30 minutes before exam

but what I'm nervous is there saying -5 utc eastern and -4 utc atlantic


-5 UTC

Eastern time covers both EST (-5 hrs, during winter) and EDT (-4 hrs, during summer).

Basically, UTC never changes, but other time zones do go backwards or forwards an hour. If you were booking an exam for January then it would be -5 hrs.

BTW, I found a contact number for them , I'll ring them on Monday
BUT this was a snip of the confirmation email I got back for 11am booking at -5 eastern

Maybe this challenge is part of the exam! Hope the exam goes well.
I had similar issues but with Canadian/ USA date format. For PR interview in Quebec I had to go to New York for the actual interview even though I lived in Montreal. The letter informing me of the interview appointment said something like 'your interview will be at 10.00am on 9/10/2004'. Since Canada uses dd/mm/yyyy but USA uses mm/dd/yyyy, I was not sure if I should turn up on 9th Oct. or 10th Sept! I called the Quebec Immigration NY office but it took them a little while to figure out. I did think about going in Sept and if I was a month early I could just return in Oct!

LOL true could be !
Oh man I hate that 10/9 9/10 who does this LOL

Hey all see below what I got from my enquiry

"Regarding the time zone selection on the exam booking form — according to ******Cert, you should simply select the correct city or time zone for your location (e.g., Eastern Time / New York). The system will automatically adjust for daylight saving time, so there’s no need to manually calculate or select a UTC offset."

if it wasn't an exam on time & travel or quantum leap, what exam was it - did you pass?

Hey there, it is/was Itil4 (an IT exam, certification) I pushed the date forward, so not sat it yet

I'm passing all the test exams,
