we know that

The
70th percentile of a distribution is the number with
70% of the data below it or equal to it.

So

If your score on the ITBS test is reported to be at the
70th percentile, This means that your score was equal to or higher than approximately
70% of the people who took this exam.

Therefore

Your score lies between the median and the third quartile

the answer is the option

c) it lies between the median and the third quartile
