Anyone knows how should we allocate the time during the exam? My study material shows 8mins/per TBS. Is that appropriate? If it is, then 8*6 = 48mins should be allocated to TBS and the rest to MCQs?
I'd say 2 hours. That gives you time to use the literature
to check answers/find them if you have no idea. Also, you
aren't going to need that much time for the MCQ. I'd say
40-50 minutes per MCQ testlet, then the rest for the sim.

This is the time allocation I had in mind going in today to the Aud exam. 55 minutes for each MCQ testlet leaving 1:15 hr for TBS. I ended up finishing MCQ in 2:15 and started TBS with 1:45 left and finished it in 1:15.
Good luck,

If you know your AUD practice well....really well, you will probably have the option of walking out the exam with time on the clock or taking your sweet time to review each TBS once, or maybe even twice.
