TSHOOT Passed
Scored 986/1000 (The 14 points were most likely 1 or 2 of the MC/DND questions at the beginning of the exam).
The first 2 tickets went fine, but on the 3rd Ticket I couldn't find the Technology that I knew was the problem (2nd Section) and ended up having to abort the ticket. That threw me off until I got a couple of tickets that I knocked out quickly. I ended up coming back to Ticket #3 after I finished all the other tickets. I did some more troubleshooting, which only confirmed my original answer. Finally, I had a thought...the screen is kinda ("kinda" is a huge understatement) small...I wonder if there are more choices off the bottom of the screen. Sure enough, I was able to scroll down and found the technology I was looking for. I had the right solution the whole time and just never thought to see if there were more choices off the screen. Strangely, it will let you use "sh run", but a number of show commands that I tried were not available.

Yea seriously, what's up with the small arse screens at these test centers. A 23" or 24" widescreen monitor, with decent resolution isn't that expensive these days. It really does make these exams tedious, especially with the layout of the SIMs.
Cisco SEAL, Cisco SWAT, Cisco DeltaForce, Cisco FBI, Cisco DoD, Cisco Army Rangers, Cisco SOCOM .ιlι..ιlι.
You know, I had this same experience, but I didn't realize it until after I had already closed about 10 tickets or so... Talk about a gut sinking feeling. Must not have mattered too much, because I scored the same as you did.
Congrats on the pass, you earned it
Well, the testing centers don't make a huge profit on the exams themselves, so there's that.
Congrats on the pass though!
