GMAC shortens breaks between sections in GMAT : effective 17th july 2009

Effective 17^th july 2009, breaks inbetween the various sections of GMAT are shortened by 15 minutes. This 15 min cut will be at the following places:

1) Now 11 less minutes will be provided to read the instructions and fill the background information

2) Both the breaks between any two subsequent sections will be short by 2 minutes each. That makes it 4 minutes short.

In our opinion the 4 minutes taken away from the breaks are crucial as GMAT takers use this to relax, calm down, refresh, and mentally prepare themselves for the next section. This surely will not make the stressed and tensed GMAT takers any happy even though they will have to fight the battle for 15 less minutes.
