If you have to get on with your work, and your computer is working well 
just now, I'd suggest upgrading it *after* your exams!  (I didn't have 
problems with the upgrade itself, but I've had some time-consuming 
degradations in the handling of network shares and in graphics 
performance - and I bet if you come across niggles, you'll spend hours 
fixing them when you should be revising!!!)
