Hello everyone,

I’d like to know if anyone has experienced a similar issue with the OSCP exam platform.

Today, I tried to upload my OSCP exam report, but I received the following error:

“Time elapsed
We are sorry to inform you that the time allotted for files submission has elapsed. We won't be able to grade your exam.”

The problem is that I still had around 4 hours left before my actual deadline. Shortly after, I also received an email stating that I had failed the exam because I did not submit my required documentation.

I have already opened a support ticket with OffSec, and I’m waiting for their response. I’m mainly posting here to find out if this is a known/common issue with the platform or if this might be an isolated case.

I have evidence showing that my report was already completed before the deadline, so hopefully support can review the situation.

Has anyone experienced something similar recently?

Hello,

I would like to know if you can clarify some doubts I have about the exam, mainly whether I can use my notebook with the notes I'm taking from the official course.

An acquaintance tells me that just doing the virtual machines/labs from the official course are similar to the exam and that it's possible to pass on the first try?

What are the instructors like during breaks during the exam? Would I be able to go to the bathroom, listen to music while taking the exam, or go outside for a smoke if I get stressed?
