Iq test score interpretation

I got an Mensa supervised iq test score of 127 (15%) on the Cattel B scale. Does this mean that I score 85th percentile, or does it mean that I scored 15% on the test. I asked but was given an unsatisfactory answer! I’d like to think the answer is the former, but I don’t want to be too sure!

It means that your score is that which would be achieved by the top performing 15% of the population.

I scored 127 on the Mensa Cattell III B Test ( SD 24 ) and they told me it was 15%. It is actually the top 13%, type in 127 and SD 24 in an IQ percentile calculator or look it up on an IQ percentile chart and it will say 1 in 8 and about the 87th percentile, top 13%.
