PL-300 Exam taken. Duration for 54 questions 100 minutes

I took the PL-300 exam today and only had 100 minutes minus the survey to answer 54 questions. I have always thought that the DA-100 was about 2.5 hours for similar number of questions. I noticed that there were very few short questions as well. Not sure if this is the norm. Please does anyone have insight?
