While studying for the advanced exam on TrueLearn, I have noticed that the percentile graph seems off. The average percent of correct questions is 63%, which correlates to 20th percentile. Based off of the distribution, it appears to be roughly a standard bell curve, with 63% correct in the middle (where 50th percentile should be).

Does this mean that people getting 63% of the questions correct achieved 20th percentile for the actual exam? Sorry if the answer is obvious, I am unable to find an explanation online.
 
My presumption is that related to percentile among test takers on TrueLearn. I wasn’t contacted by them regarding my percentile on the advanced exam, so from my n of 1 they aren’t soliciting that information.

Anecdotally I know a number of people who sat in the 60s and passed with a much higher percentile than 20.

It's part of what has me worried about the exam. Go look at the curve from the ITE this year. 20 questions encompassed 95% of the distribution, meaning that each question counted for multiple percentiles.
