You must have done well to get it done in 2 hours - the navigation element alone is supposed to take not less than an hour!

The Examiner is supposed to turn up, check the weather, greet the Applicant, brief the Applicant and then let the Applicant have an hour's planning time. During this time the Examiner checks the paperwork. I've never managed the flight in less than 2 1/2 hours; others may have done. Then there's the debrief and all the other paperwork to do - that'll take about an hour in total. I reckon that it's nearer 0.5 + 1.0 + 2.5 + 1.0 = 5 hours' work!
