Clock doesn't tick #19

Hello,

I'm relatively new to arduino and especially interacting with the RTC. I ran the hello world example sketch, as well as tried out the set time and read time, and no matter what I have done, the clock is static in the time I set. The Hello world sketch is not giving the right time. It has taken over a minute for the clock to progress even a second. Is this a known issue I just can't seem to find?

It is about 85 real seconds per RTC second.

Sounds like your RTC may be faulty.
