Can anyone provide some clarity on how the ACE score is calculated? For instance, out of a 100 question test is an ACE score of 50 just 50%? Also im having trouble understanding the 200-500 scoring for DSST. Thanks in advance.

Also realize that exams with 100 questions generally do not include all 100 questions when scoring. You do not know the actual number of questions which are scored. Bottom line, no, a scaled score of '50' does not mean 50%. There are many testing programs out there that use this same 20-80 scaled scoring system.
