clarification needed...

hi,
I'm another new wannabe ATCO
after going through nearly all the posts on this forum, I have a question with regards to Stage 1 which I'm about to book a date for.
How many questions is there and how much time are you given for each - maths, motivation, cubes and diagrams? everybody gives different numbers so not quite sure which is correct. it varies from 40 to 50 also someone earlier said there were 3 cubes with 15 questions each so 45 in total(I guess) .the recent e-mail from NATS about new rules says there is 1h for maths/motivation and 1hr for the other 2. Does it mean you get 1/2h for each part of the test?
I'm doing a lot of preperation at the moment but just want to know if my calculation skills are anywhere near to what is expected.
any comments would be appreciated.
Regards,
b

also have just found this link to Manual of Air Traffic Services http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/33/CAP493PART1.PDF
is it actually worth going through it in preperation for stage 1 (or hopefully later)?
thx b
