FWIW, I agree that question is vacillatingly written.

I believe it means a grade of 86% correct is required to pass

There are always a couple test questions that are poorly worded. Over time you'll get used to reading them and get a better understanding of what the questions are asking. It is very frustrating the first few times around though.

Gee, ya think? I learned a long time ago (not being Mr. Grammer or Spelling Guy), you have to pick and choose your words very carefully here.....and I am still not good at it! Words like should, could, might, may, at least can get you in trouble (just like the exams)....and some of the folks here are pretty sharp - and as doubleringer states - experienced!

It's becasue there are aloways going to be a few poorly worded questions that you only need 86% to pass.
