There are six sections in GRE, and you should complete this exam within 3 hours and 45 minutes, including a break. No extra time will be given, even if you skip the break. If you get a break during the exam, time will automatically be deducted from your exam, and you will not be allowed to take extra time. It is a computer-based test designed to make the students more comfortable as you can skip the question, go back to the previous question, and change the answer within seconds.
