Indications are that the trains that are most likely to suffer disruption are those with conducting rail at ground level. The Leicester to London line is thus not one of those liable to disruption and as met forecast is the snow will ease off today (8th Feb) and higher temperature tomorrow, it would not be worth losing the chance of taking your exam, if you really do want to pass it? Failing an exam can ruin some people's lives. But allow at least double the time to travel that you would have allowed if weather had been normal.

Given the deferred date may be as equally bad, I'd sit the exam tomorrow. Go to Leicester the night before and spend the nigt. You will be less stressed in the exam.

Take the first available train from [I think] Kings X and just go. Make the effort. Just be there.
Hopefully there will be little or no fresh snow fall overnight. The railway companies are working flatout keeping tracks open.
I know, I've got a mate working in the Permanant Way - he ain't stopped work in 16 hours. Everyone is working flat out to get you to Leicester.

Check the bbc website - www.bbc.co.uk- for the latest travel info - and yes, as dizzy says, ring the exam site to check that they are going ahead. Good luck!

I would call ahead to make sure that they will be there first as you may have a wasted journey. And check forecast and for any travel delays. trains buses etc
