    I took a mock exam (Becker). I could not finish MCQ within 80 mins as I planned, took two hours, and left only two hours for three testlets Sims, but could complete Sims with ten minutes left.
    Would a real exam have more materials to go through in Sims so two hours would not be enough? I suspect that the mock exam has less information than a real exam so that I could finish within two hours..

    When I took the Becker mock exams, I had one hour to spare. In the final exam, things were quite different because the last testlet had way more information. Mcqs were fairly easy. So I would suggest 1 -1.5min for each MCQ and probably 2.5 hours for the simulations.

    I don't think time will be an issue. I used almost all of the time on the other exams (even ran out of time on FAR) and still finished AUD with 45 minutes to spare.

    AUD - 92
    BEC - 84
    FAR - 77
    REG - 89
