A I using the right function and am I using it properly?

I am using this forumla - =COUNTIF(L3824:L4005, "TRUE") - to find out how many cells in a row contain the string "TRUE". The answer i got was not accepted by the quiz as correct. Where did i go wrong?

many thanks in advanced

The question asks for "the number of cells with a value of “TRUE” in column L". It doesn't say anything about limiting the count to just those rows.
