College Board scoring on some exams?

So I recently just got back my AP calculus BC exam (which I did during the makeup exam period) and received a 3. I found that sort of disapointing, given that during course exams I would consistently get 85+, which I think is at least a 4 (?). First off, I know it wasn’t some sort of disqualification because I would’ve received a 1 (?). When I asked fellow classmates who also took the makeup what they received, they later replied “3”. I had probably asked 8 other students who all gave me the answer 3. I was confused at this point, and came up with 3 possibilities:

1. All 8 students were trolling in a unified effort. (unlikely)

2. They all really did get a 3. (VERY unlikely, as I know some of them would have done better than that.)

3. College Board just gave us a 3 to hasten the marking process. (probably the most likely)
Any thoughts, did this happen to any of you? Just curious because if this is true then I need to know before they get away with it. (Keep in mind the 8 students I asked along with myself all did the exam during makeup week due to one reason or another).
