4

<p>u got online score report for june?</p>

5

<p>ya.....4 june!!</p>

<p>No. 10% of math IIC test takers get 800s. Thus, your score is 90th percentile.</p>

7

<p>sry so did i lol</p>

8

<p>ok......thnx a lot.</p>

9

<p>lol, for korean if you get an 800 its only 73 percentile</p>

10

<p>don't worry its not 90% of all juniors.. its 90% just for the smart ppl that took it in the first place.. a lot of ppl on here(including me!) got an 800 because the curve is ridiculously easy. I think you can get a raw score of 43/50 and still have an 800.</p>

11

<p>seriously...........ur percentile is 73 for 800 in korean?????????</p>

12

<p>i think chinese is 56 for an 800. HAHAHA.</p>

13

<p>yea i got a 770 for chinese and was in the 34th percentile. i felt stupid -_-. the iic thing percentile just means that even if u got the highest score possible so many other ppl got the same score that you only did better than 80% or something</p>
