I heard there was some changes made to it. As of present, how many questions are on the exam and how are they divided into the time blocks? Thanks

My friend told me there were 44 questions per block and 60 minute time-limit per block.

thanks, 8 question blocks right?

I believe so. Its a 9 hour day with 1 hour for break time.

Yea, I can confirm that all of the above is true. 44 questions per block, 8 blocks in the test, 60 minutes per block. The added time is 1 hour, but they will try to take 15 minutes of that time from you in the beginning, and you can save that time by going through the intro quickly (just make sure your sound works properly, that's the main important thing).

You can also add to your break time by ending your blocks early. But there's not much sense to that, I think. That's time better spent reviewing your work.
