Is practicing only all the official questions and Gmat Prep questions enough to get ready for exam? How much is the possibility in the exam day we see similar questions?

Resolve the apparent discrepancy between physicians’ perceptions and the change in the actual time spent?
I understand that B is the only option which helps to explain the increased time of patient with Physicians. But the question ask to solve discrepancy between physicians’ perceptions and the change in the actual time spent. I still don't get it why physicians think they are spending less time although in reality they are the ones spending time with patient to select from wider options available.
For example, if i spent 30 min earlier on workout and now after including more exercise in my workout session, i am spending 1 hr. How can my perception be different in both scenerio about the time?
Thanks for your help!
Why option (B) is correct -
B. Physicians today typically have a wider range of options in diagnosis and treatment to consider with the patient before prescribing.
Consider this:
10 years ago when someone went to the physical with a cough, he would assume it to be bacterial infection or flu and give antibiotics and some symptom control medicines.
Today when someone goes, the physician has to consider bacterial, flu, covid, pneumonic, lower lung capacity etc. For each there are multiple treatment paths. The company has given guidelines for each and the physician has consider the treatment path under those guidelines. He may have less discretion though he may not be spend extra time to finally write the prescription.
Answer (B)
