CARS question - How many question can I get wrong?

Say I wanted to get 130+ on the CARS section of the MCAT. Do any of you intelligent people out there have a rough idea of how many questions I can get wrong? I know it is a standardized exam, which makes my question virtually impossible to answer... but are we talking 2 questions? 5? 10?

THANK-YOU!!

I would say 0-2? That's the rough estimate my instructor at Prep101 gave me. It's hard to say.

I feel like it should be a little higher than that- since a little over 4% of people get over 130, 0-2 wrong being 130+ would make it hard to separate the 130s from the 132s. My (maybe optimistic?) guess is 0-1 for a 132, 2-3 for 131, 4-5 for 130.

I got a 131 on the actual MCAT CARS section. In practice tests I tended to get 0-2 wrong. That's sorta what I was going based off of as well.
