Breaks on test day ??

by owodee » Sun Jul 08, 2007 7:19 am
Hi all

OG says that we get 5 minute breaks btw AWA & Quant and also btw Quant & Verbal, while www.mba.com says that the breaks are ten minutes. Any one have an idea how long they really are?

Thanks

They were 5 minutes for me when I took the test in 2005. You might want to just call the test center--and please let us know!

They are 10 minutes but be careful depending on where you are if the facility is crowded it could take them a couple of minutes to check you back in. When I took it last week I lost a minute in my Verbal section because of that.
