Fellows have 4 hours to complete the entire 200-item examination, including an optional break time of up to 60 minutes (5 hours total).

Every student will have an hour of break time to either use or not in as many breaks as desired; it is up to the discretion of the proctor to determine how many breaks are appropriate. The amount of break time used will not affect the overall examination time remaining.
Fellows must submit their examination before they can view the preliminary results.
