I did take (didn't get a good grade on it but I did take it). Now I have to look for it (I don't know where the hell it is, after I got it back I was so frustrated with myself that I don't know where I put it). You'd think that being an scantron exam it'd be easier for them to record the grades but it's not. I just learned this, because I actually got my test back and graded....this is beyond stupidity. Worst thing is, I don't know whose fault it is...mine for not being responsable and archiving my exam or hers for actually not doing a good job when recording the grades (she could have approached me and asked me if I took the exam or done something that one of my professors did which was that I had to sign a paper when I picked up my exam).

In high school, I had a B+ in a class at mid-term, got all A's after that and then had a B- as my final grade. I asked the professor why, and she said it's because I got a 29 on one of my tests. I keep all of my work, and it turns out that I got a 92 on that test!
OP, I would definitely talk to someone in an administrative position about the timing of the final. I had a professor change the time of our final from 8pm to 6:30pm, but she had to get the permission of everyone in the class to have the final at a time different than what is designated by the school. Obviously your prof didn't have your permission, so hopefully you'll still be allowed to take your test. I would act quickly though, since this is the end of the semester. It might seem like a lot of work, but I would just make one phone call to the appropriate Dean to see what he/she has to say about it.
