To not tell anyone when my exams are

I'm a mature student, I did my a levels and then had 4 children and sahm, my siblings all have qualifications etc and I'm 'just a mum' (my brother said that)

I'm doing some studies at home and I have my final exams coming up, I'll have some decent qualifications if I pass and I'm planning to start a degree in a related subject this year, (something none of them have yet, one is at uni) but i don't have any confidence in myself and I don't want to tell anyone if I fail, just tell them if I pass.
But they're trying to get exact dates because they know it's soon.

Aibu to keep the pressure off myself by not telling anyone?

Make up a date and tell them that’s when your exams are.

yanbu.

Agree with making up a date if it helps take the pressure off - give them a date 2 weeks after the real one :-)

Well done for your studies and good luck for the exams!

I'd tell them they had to be postponed and you haven't received a new date yet.
I wish you good luck
