science check

I keep reading that the highest science check requires 170% skill, and it's mostly just for a laugh. Anyone know what that is? Or at least where to find it? Can anyone confirm that it even requires this much skill?

I tried upping it to 132% and I still couldn't get the bloody door on the first level of the Glow open after dozens of attempts. I did it once before with a lower skill level. I seriously cannot figure out if my character is ever able to open something. I mean is everything that you can try...
