It's a scaled test, so every test will have a different number of questions right that correspond to a percentile. It's very sensitive, though. I just took a practice half length and a difference of 3 correct questions corresponded to a 23% difference in percentile (16/30 = 32%, 19/30 = 55%). But, people score different in every section, also.

^^I've also been trying for months to find the kind of data you're looking for- the only conclusion I can draw is that its similar to the pre-2015 exams, but the curve isn't as steep (esp with CARS/VR) because there are more questions per section. There may even be more leeway given how certain sections became harder. No clue what the scale looks like for the Psy/Soc sections tho, Anyone have more info?
