Decision Making
About 63.4 seconds per question.
The UCAT gives Decision Making 35 questions in 37 minutes. That is the planning number to carry into a timed set.
The calculation
37min×60sec÷35Q=63.4sec / Q
Plan for roughly 63 seconds each.
This is an average, not a rule for every item. Decision Making has the most time per question, but five-statement items and puzzles take far longer than single answers. Bank time on quick items so the long ones do not run you out.
