I just Beat The GMAT!

Congats for the scores and thank you for the very informative tips you have provided.

I have a question about the breaks. You mentioned that the breaks are for a duration of 8 mins now. Does that mean that the break between AWA and quant is 8 minutes and the break between quant and Verbal is also 8 minutes. I will appreciate if you can answer my question.

Ok here you go

Test day

After you are allocated a computer, these are what you will do. (You will take the locker key + your ID inside the testing room)

1)school selection. - (NOT TIMED - important to know)
2) Instructions - TIMED - you already know the instructions. So you can breeze through this without really reading.
3) AWA - 2x30 mins = 1 hr
4) Break - 8 mins
5) Extra 1 minute to read instructions when you get back to your computer- effectively you will have an extra minute after you sign back in. You can use it to quickly write down your pacing table/strategy.
6)Quant
7) Break - 8 mins
8)Extra 1 minute - Same as point 4
9) Verbal
10) Survey and scores. - I didnt fill anything up as I was too hungry! Report Scores? - Hell yea!

Let me know if you need to know anything really specific. I will be glad to explain.

When you finish AWA and Quant, you will get "do you want a break screen" - HIT YES....dont spend half an hour reading that pop up...just my thoughts

Again really informative.Thank you.

This is could very well be a bug in the test. If I could spend 30 mins to ponder on whether "I should be taking the break", effectively I get 38 mins to spend between the two sections
