The entire testing session is scheduled for a fixed amount of time. The computer keeps track of overall time and the time allocated for each block of the test. A "Time Remaining" box is displayed on the computer screen.

Forty-five minutes is allotted for break time. The 45 minutes for breaks can be divided in any manner, according to the examinee's preference. If a block of the test or tutorial section is completed early, the remaining time will be available for breaks. It will not be available to complete other blocks of the test.

As the examinee progresses through the blocks of the test, he/she should monitor how many blocks are remaining and how much break time is remaining. If too much break time is taken and the allocated or accumulated break time is exceeded, the time to complete the last block(s) in the testing session will be reduced.

When section time runs out, the examinee will not be able to move to any new screens. The computer will close the section. After the examinee completes or runs out of time for each block during the test, he/she must respond when the computer asks to indicate whether he/she wants to take a break or continue.
