I guess as long as you do not submit the last quant Q you should get whole break (it' just 8 mins not 10 mins) plus the time you saved on the test ... not sure though
This is correct. Once you press submit/next on the final question your break will start. It doesn't matter if you had 1 second left or 10 minutes left in the section-- you'll have exactly 8 minutes from the time you press submit to take your break and return to the computer.
I was so antsy when taking the test that I would have gone right to the break even if I finished the quant section 20 minutes early. I just don't see the point in delaying the inevitability of the next section.
But if you do have some crazy amount of time left (maybe 10-30 minutes) you
could flag down the proctor and leave your seat to take a restroom break for a while. Then just go back to your computer, press submit on the last question, and take your actual 8 minute break. But be careful managing your time because you have to check in each time you enter and leave the testing room. This can potentially take some time, especially if there are people ahead of you, because they have to scan everyone's ID and palm and escort each person individually to and from his or her chair.
