It also depends on the question format they are asking: multiple choice vs short answer which would naturally require more time to "earn" a mark. The exams that I correct (PE Unit 3/4) are usually around 110-130 marks in 2 hours writing time so as far as comparison goes it is about 1 mark per minute with reading time as well.
