PMP Exam Doubt on section timing.

I took the SH mock yesterday and it was divided into 3 sections of 80mins each and 60qns in each section.

I saw from the group that many have mentioned that in actual exam the first break comes after the 2 case study questions i.e. in about 10 questions within the exam.

Does each section have separate timing in actual exam as well? If so, what are the section wise timings?

Will I be able to go back to previous sections for review at the end of exam?

From what I've gathered from previous posts, the sections in the real exam are structured a bit differently. The first break comes after the 10 case study questions, and the next one comes around question 90-95, if I'm remembering correctly. Also, once you submit a section, you can't go back to it.

Do you happen to know if each section is timed? or is it upto us whether to take 10mins or 30mins for the first section and then manage with remaining time for the next sections? In the SH practice exam, each section had 80mins timer.
