YES PLEASE LOOK INTO IT. EVEN MANY STUDENTS AS LIKE ME HAVE EXAM CENTER ARROUND 100 KMS AWAY IN DIFFERENT CITY. DUE TO COVID VERY LIMITED TRANSPORT SERVICES (TRAINS/BUSES) AND AFTER 6 PM IN WINTER SEASON ITS EVEN GETS LESSER. 

FOR FEMALE CANDIDATES ITS A BIG PROBLEM.

AFTERNOON SHIFT IS A DULL SHIFT PEOPLE AVOID TAKING LUNCH TO AVOID DULLNESS. KEEPING CONCENTRATION EMPTY STOMACH TILL 6 PM IS ALSO DIFFICULT.

THERE ARE OTHER WAYS INSTEAD OF EXTENDING TIME DURATION LIKE TO DECREASE CUTTOFF LEVEL, DECREASE NUMBER OF QUESTIONS, OR TO DECREASE THE DIFFICULTY LEVEL OF THE QUESTIONS. 

PLEASE GIVE A THOUGHT OVER IT. BY KEEPING difficulties for 2nd shift students.

especially for female students living in north, it gets dark by that time
