OP Greetings,
I was going through the archives of "Q&A about Words" section and happen to come across the discussion of whether the word "prepone" be used. The link is given below.

I normally used prepone and was surprised to see that Oxford English Dictionary (OED) do not acknowledge the usage. So how about using the word 'Advance' ?
Eg: My Exams got advanced by a week.
More later,
Kiran
