From my own experience,

In my R&S I did reload everything after i finished the whole lab in order to make sure everything will come as it was before the reload as routing protocol involved in the topology

But in my Security I didn't reload any thing except the firewalls for some mode change and that's it.

Hmmm...

It depends...

The traditional school of thought suggest reloading
before lunch.

However, if I had everything working... I may or may
not reload - I'd really have to ask myself if I had
enough time to fix the problems I may uncover.

You see, I just do not believe it is common practice
for the proctors to reload your rack.

I am not them and none of can say for sure, and the
proctors for sure will not say.

It really depends on how much time I have left and if
I'm feeling lucky.

Gonna catch spam on this one, but to each his own.

Reboot at lunch sounds great. Hopefully you got things
working by then.

If not your chances of passing are waning fast anyway.

If you find problems at that juncture with only about
3 hours left you are probably toast anyway.

Enjoy the meal.
