I have an exam in London...on Tuesday at 12pm. 30 mins drive away from the England parade. The latest I need to be there to check in is 11.30 and it takes roughly 90 mins to get there. Would IBU to leave at 9.00?

Better to give yourself extra time and be early.

Leave early and find somewhere near the exam where you can get coffee and breathe.

Leaving at 9 sounds sensible.

I'd be leaving earlier than 9 anyway, even without a parade.

Exams are quite stressful for most people.
I'd FAR rather be nearby with an hour or more to spare, than stressing in traffic even on a day when I weren't aware of something that is going to be drawing large crowds into the area.

Agree, I'd aim to leave around 9 regardless of the England parade for something as important as an exam.
