Optional Break time is 5 or 10 minutes ?

[takegmat]

OG 11 as well as GMATPrep CAT indicates that the break time available inbetween the sections is 5 minutes. But someone who took the test recently, mentioned break time of 10 minutes rather than just 5. Can anyone who have recently took the gmat test please confirm/deny the break time period.

10 min it is.

It is 10 minutes.

Yes, but assume it's 5 - because the test will start up again in 10 minutes whether you're sitting in front of the computer or not. So once it feels like 5 minutes has passed, start getting ready to go back in the room. (There will be a clock in the waiting room, but you can't wear your own watch, so it can be easy to lose track of time.)
