Is the ISCET exam different depending on which state you take it in?

Relocating from one state to another in a few months and trying to figure out if my (ISCET) International Society of Certified Electronics Technicians prep needs to change based on where I'll be taking the actual exam.

I've been studying "iscet certification" and the materials seem standardized, but I've heard the exam can vary by state or have different question weights.

Specifically wondering:
- Are passing scores the same across states?
- Does the content on iscet study guide differ by state?
- If I pass in one state, does it transfer?

The official resources are confusing on this. Some say it's a national exam, others suggest state-specific versions exist.

Anyone who's taken ISCET in multiple states or knows how the portability works — would really appreciate the clarity before I invest more time in state-specific prep.

Quick data point: I spent 4 weeks studying, 2-3 hours a day, and passed with a 74%.

The section on iscet certification took me the longest to feel confident about. Eventually I just drilled practice questions until I could answer them without hesitation.

What testing center did you end up booking? Some of them have much shorter wait times than others right now.
