I didn't realize that the Stanford tests were figuring the percentiles that way. I had a homeschooled 5th grader whom I tested on the SAT last year who missed 25-35% of the questions on some of the sections and still came out in the low 90s in terms of percentiles on some of those (science comes to mind as one subtest where that was the case.)
