I know that people can tell from the streak of incorrect answers at the the that the test-taker is running out of time and is rushing, but can someone also tell exactly how much time you spend on them? Someone told me that GMAT also considers the amount of time I spend on each question to caculate the score or something like that.

No. The gmat does NOT consider the amount of time you spend on each question. The mark you get is based on 3 things:
1) the number of questions you answer
2) the number of questions you get right
3) questions difficulty level

THATS IT.

1-3 are right above, but the OG also states other statistical charactersists of each question. I can't say that I'm sure what they mean by that though.
