Can anybody tell me how many questions one should get correct out of 350 to touch 2 digit score of 99.
All i know is that a 3 digit score of 245 can fetch a 2 digit score of 99.
But actually this 3 digit score of 245 corresponds to how many correct answers?
Pls help?

No one knows abt it ... 
and one shud not bother to know also buddy cos its low yield.... 
Is there anything u can do to increase ur score if u knew that logic/fact.....?
No...Isnt it....So stop wasting time like i did abt 2 months ago figuring out this very same question and its answer.

245 questions are exactly 245 score, your real score dont change, i heard somewhere, but total number of questions changes, they get eliminated. To get 245, you have to correct 245 questions out of 350. i could be wrong,

kalyan, i think they are talking about 2 digit, not the 3 digit, 2 digit is percentile, it depends on how others did, but 3 digit is your score, anyway, nope, i dont want mine. i did all the calculations before exam , hehe.

Your three digit score is an approximate guide to how many questions you got right but its not an exact guide. I dont know how far this is correct but what i've read from FA is that about 30% questions you face in the real exam DO NOT make it to the final cut. That is they're not counted. Most of them are experimental questions while others are excluded for unknown reasons.
But as kalyan pointed out worryin about these things is a pointless exercise...if you work hard and plan smart, 99 is a definite possibility.

And no AD 2 digit score is not a percentile.
They dont give out percentiles now.
