gosh Harrison this is like a thesis explanation!
The three digit is the number of right questions that you got (depends on how many experimental ones you got) and this is specific for each "formula"
The two digit is your performance compared to people who had the same questions (not percentile not percentage they calculate this differently)

Because after a certain point you'll get three digit score and same performance on two digits (eg 252/99 or 239/99) then the programs never ever ever go by the two digit. They always want to hear the three digit score It's not the same to IV a person who had a 239 (which in the US is somewhat "easy" to get for good students) and getting a 252 (which anywhere in the world is defined more as exceptional candidates) but by the two digit they both have 99 right?

So that is it, now how the number of experimental questions are calculated is also dependable on your formula and your performance. This is harder to explain but that is why some people may feel that they did pretty bad and then end up with a great score (more experimental and harder questions because their performance on the initial ones was good or over the expected) or people who feel did great end up with not so good score (failed questions that most people would ace and then the "level" of the test was decreased...)
