About a 7:45 am alarm

A 7 am alarm is the classic UK weekday wake-up, matching school runs and 9 am office starts. Many phone alarm defaults sit around this time. A quarter-to time gives you a short run-up to anything that starts on the hour. It suits people who prefer a quick start, such as a fast breakfast and an immediate commute, and it is often used by those who want the last possible moment of sleep without being late.

In London the sun is already up at 7:45 am in February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October and November. It is still dark, or already dark, at that time in January and December.
