I'm hearing differing inputs on how much time we get to review the stem question before the torturing begins by the examiners. I hear 5 minutes from some people and 15 minutes by others. Does anybody know the actual time??? 😕
 
For the first stem, we were all herded into a room and eventually given the stem. I think I had more than 30 minutes to look it over before it was time to go. It was a LONG time. The second stem was more "normal" as I went from the first room to my chair, worked the stem for probably just under 5 minutes, then got called in. My big shock was the amount of time I had for the first and who I had as an examiner for my second 😱
