Order of sections in TOEFL®

[Shouvik]

1. Are the sections randomly assigned/ordered or do they come in order :

* Reading: 3-5 passages(12-14 questions; 700 word/passages), 60-100 minutes to complete, 30 points
* Listening: 4-6 lectures, 6 questions each, 500-800 words(4-6 minutes); 2 -3 conversations, 5 questions each, 400 - 500 words(2-3 minutes); 60-90 minutes to complete; 30 points.
* BREAK: 10 MINUTES
* Speaking: 2 independent task(1 personal experience, 1 preference/choice); 2 integrated task(read-listen-speak), reading 100 words, conversation 200 words(1-2 minutes), Lectures 200-300 words(1-2minutes); 2 integrated task( listen-speak), conversation 200 words(1-2 minutes), lecture 200-300 words(1-2 minutes); 20 minutes to complete; 30 points.
* Writing: 1 independent task; 1 integrated task(read-listen-write)-reading 250-300 words & lecture 250-300 words(2 minutes); 50 minutes to complete; 30 points

2. Is each passage in the reading section separately timed or do I get a bulk amount of 60-100 minutes to complete all 3 - 4 passages?

3. Is each lecture in the listening section separately timed or do I get a bulk amount of 60-90 minutes to complete all listening questions?

4. The reason I am asking questions 2 and 3 is that I would like to take some 2 - 3 minutes rest between passages and lectures.

This would allow me to focus better as well as reenergize myself.

What would you suggest to keep one's cool/focus?

Well?

As far as I know, the sections are in order and only 10 minutes break after Reading + Speaking sections.
The timer will restart at the beginning of each section that means a bulk amount of time for each section.
