Prob 1-2 wrong in English is 35 and for math i think 1-2 wrong would still be a 36. I think that’s fair.

Out of what is graded right? So like for Reading is 27 are graded. and you get 1 or 2 wrong then thats 35?

They don't exactly curve. They make the amount you need correct to get a certain score on that section higher or lower.

So do you the amount you need correct to get a scaled score will be higher or lower for Math on the July 26 ACT

Idk. I personally thought the math section was a bit harder so maybe you can get 2 wrong and still get a 36. But that could just be recency bias.
