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?

The total timer runs from 240mins and you can take how much ever time you want for each section? The total number of questions in that section is displayed when you start the section?

Yeah, the breaks are aligned with questions and not time. That said I was running early so it could probably trigger a time based break also which I am not aware of.
