How can I find the answer? what score would you recommend Alex to aim for order to get into college?

Question

your friend alex wants to go a very competitive collge that only accepts students who score in the top 1% of all students applicants. about what score would you recommend Alex to aim for order to get into college?

Answer 1

We don't know what other applicants score. But if Alex scores 100% he must be in the top 1% because no one can score more than 100%.

For example, if all other applicants score 100% and Alex were to score 99%, he would not be in the top 1%. So to be sure he would have to get 100%.
