If it were me, I would postpone the exam and not use the steroids. Mind
you, I have never been in your situation and this is based on what I've
heard from the people around me, as well as an overcautious nature. I
don't know how the exam system works in your country but if it is in any
way possible, wouldn't you rather do the exam when you are at your best and
can focus on your expressive goals, rather than on making sure your voice
works properly? I don't mean to alarm you, this is just what I would do.
Whatever you decide, good luck to you! I know how difficult it is to go
through a time when you have doubts in your voice.
