Ya know, I cant remember which one now but i know that for one essay i didnt click the next button and i still got a 6.
Man I shudder to think what would have happened if they didnt do that!

On our tests, if you don't click confirm, it doesn't get counted.
No, you can't take a longer break than the allotted time. You're not supposed to leave your seat while the test is running, and you have to raise your hand and have a proctor escort you out when you do want to leave. When they come to escort you out, they will also take the test into "break mode" and start the official timer for the break.
I do agree that planning for breaks is important! Make sure that your food and drink (in your locker) is easily accessible. If you bring a sandwich, cut it up to make it easier to eat. If you bring a granola bar, break it into pieces in advance and put it in a ziploc bag. Basically, make it really easy for yourself to get out there and immediately start drinking, eating, and de-stressing (as much as you can, anyway!)
