If it says I have to get a 50 does that mean 50% correct or 50 questions? There are 60 questions on the college algebra and I am wondering if I can only get 10 wrong?

You will have to get a scaled score, which is even more confusing.
Your raw score (which they don't tell you) is celebrated against the scores of other students that made up the control group, and somewhere in the mix they will determine what % is equal to a scaled score of 50. Clear as mud!

Scaled scores are from 20 (nothing answered correctly) to 80 (perfect score). Good luck!
