Default Barbell curls on disc one-crazy weights?

I don't know if I did this one rep max test right so please help. On the disc both sets of barbell curls are done as "21's" and "21" appears as the rep number on the workout card. I was able to lift 18 pounds just to failure at the 21st rep, when Cathe finished. So I put that in the one rep max calculator (had to use 20 reps, not 21) and it gives my one rep max as 38 pounds. Then it calculated my workout card to lift 23 pounds! But I just failed at 18 pounds! So I'm wondering if I you count the reps differently on 21's? Or should I have tested my one rep max doing straight barbell curls and not the half curls of the 21's?
