Actually, I'm wrong in my interpretation of what 12.00AM means in my previous post. It does mean midnight.

I've just done some research, and

The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language has a usage note on this topic: "By convention, 12 AM denotes midnight and 12 PM denotes noon. Because of the potential for confusion, it is advisable to use 12 noon and 12 midnight."

I had 'Tuesday, March 19, 2013 at 12:00AM PST' as my deadline and I'm pretty sure that was 7am on Tuesday morning in the UK.

Midnight is a silly time to pick when there are people in different countries but I think it would go from 11.59 on Monday night to 12.00 Tuesday and we are 7 hours ahead.

I missed my deadline as I couldn't access the exam and they have automatically rescheduled me for the next date.

Oh well I'll finish the exam today and see what happens . I thought the new day started at 12:00:01 but might be wrong

I get so confused with the time differences, I am going to have to set an old mobile to PST just so I can fill in my time sheet.

12am is definitley midnight. 12am PST will be 8am GMT Tuesday morning (or 7am now they have changed their clocks, how confusing!)

Student midwife I had an email when I first applied saying the exam would have to be submitted by 8am, which I was going by (4pm gmt). I didn't realise that I had missed the 8am deadline, and submitted at 3pm that afternoon. Once I realised I had actually submitted late I assumed I had failed, but I actually passed, so if you can still access the exam, get it done asap

The exam is till there so hopefully that means I've not missed the deadline??? Guessing it will probably disappear after the deadline?

I've been using a tool where you can set the time to PT. It makes invoicing so much easier!

2 minutes work so far today

I missed my deadline as I got confused by the timezones. I just completed my exam as quickly as I could and still managed to pass.

Good luck!

Same Pippi, 2mins for me aswell!

I will have a look at that, I have been struggling with my invoicing. I have spent more time working out how to correctly add my time than actual working!
