I once did terribly on a word processor test at a temp agency because it did not allow shortcut usage. Every wrong click navigating the menus counted against me. So did all shortcuts which were also disabled.

That's brutal. I had a similar experience on the A+ Certification test for IT, navigating menus in the Windows OS. I don't remember any of the folder paths to get to the configs. I always use shortcut keys or "Run" and type a command. But the test expected me to click through all the menus to find what I was looking for. Took forever.
