Ok, for the last 3-4 days I've had a really bad cold, and it's only started to get worse. I wake up in the morning with insanely sore arms and muscles. Sometimes with a headache, and feel like sleeping after a few hours work. So it's more on the severe side as far as colds go.

I have two exams tomorrow. Both of which I really want to sit. But I'm worried that I'll go crap because of this. Also, I haven't had as much last minute cramming as I would like. You know, all the finicky stuff.

A cold seems pretty lame though. Does it qualify for an illness/misadventure form?

lol YES. perfectly valid

if you feel it has affected your performance significantly (while doing the actual exam) dont hesitate to apply for misadventure. you have nothing to lose if they reject it anyway

just remember to say its a severe cold =]

Our supervisor made me fill one in because I blew my nose too much during my last exam and needed to take panadol.
Fill it in.. the worst they can do is say no.
Nothing to lose.
