Yikes, I do not think so. Why not just wait until after your exam, like a little gift to yourself?

You have so much to polish up, to add one of the most difficult pieces seems insane to an already busy schedule.

Good luck on your exam.

Sorry, I confused the dates. Here is my opinion: I would start it after your April concerts. Pace yourself, so the pieces you have for your test (quite a while away!) are always near performance condition. If you really cannot wait, I would say April seems reasonable.
