Hello all!
I took the GMAT about 1 month ago and will be taking it again for the second time in two days. I am wondering whether anyone shares the same experience about having their breaks ending early like I did.
In my first exam, I decided to take most people's suggestion: leaving the room to walk around and stretch out. After taking a 4-minute break, I decided to check back in spend the last couple minutes in my cubicle. However, after escorting me back to my seat, the examiner clicked "ending break now" or something similar and I needed to go straight back to the exam. I thought I could spend the remaining time to calm myself down at my desk, but my break was forced to end early.
I had the same experience at my second break. After the exam, I was a bit upset about my result and forgot to ask the front desk about it.
Has anyone experienced the same thing?

I dont think you can spend time in your desk, You have to end break immediately after sitting in the desk.
But you can take some time before starting on the next session on the tutorials page.

You can't. The break has to be taken outside the testing room, and the exam continues once you're back in.
