I don't know where you live but in the midwest it is common for kids to take the ACT not the SAT test. You can go online and look for free ACT test. Have him redo the reading part and see if he scores about the same. If yes request his reading be evaluated by the school. When my son was a sophomore in high school it was finally discovered that he was dyslexic. Spanish 3 and Geometry were very hard. As I was told by the reading specialist, "English is a foreign language to your son." If there is a problem, get documentation. AJ was allowed extra time on his ACT and scored a 30. He has always hated to read. He did take a few college classes during his high school senior year and that helped him realize what college was like. He is in his second year of college. Business-IT major with a minor in Computer Science. On his own AJ got a paid internship last summer and they have kept him on for the school year. He is very hard working. He really struggled with Calc 1 in college (the English is a second language Professor did not help) but has done well in the English classes.
I am hoping your son just skipped one question and filled in many wrong circles. Good Luck.
