If I wanted to say I got the highest score on something, would I say:

"Tengo la puntuación más alta?"

On SpanishDict by Flashcards, it say "Puntuación alto". Should I be using the masculine adjective as well

In present simple: "Tengo la puntuación mas alta" or Past simple: "Tuve la puntuación mas alta"...

Note: this adjective is feminine so you should use article "la" for "alt-A" )

Dear Luciente,

very well noticed of you! It should be indeed 'la puntuación alta'. Since it's a feminine noun, the adjective ought to adapt. Spanishdict.com made a small mistake in this case. Kindest regards
