Can someone provide guidance how to time oneself?
I would be very thankful if someone could confirm.

Am I right in thinking that:

Total time for an exam - 8 hours -9 am to 5 pm

Modelling & audit trail before the second piece of info is provided - 3.5 hours - 9 am to 12.30 pm

Lunch - 30 mins - 12.30 pm - 1 pm

Second piece of information & audit trail - 1 hour - 1 pm to 2 pm

Summary report - 3 hours - 2 pm to 5 pm

I followed something similar and passed. Looks good.

Ensure the model you build is flexible to incorporate the 2nd piece of information by not hard coding parameter values. The less flexible the model is, the more time it will take to incorporate the 2nd piece of information and hence less time for summary.
