Memories might include a plurality of strings of memory cells, a plurality of access lines each connected to the strings of memory cells, and a controller configured to cause the memory to determine a particular voltage level applied to each of the access lines that is deemed to activate each memory cell of a first subset of the strings of series-connected memory cells programmed to store respective data states that are each lower than or equal to a first data state of a plurality of data states, apply the particular voltage level to a particular access line of the plurality of access lines, and for each memory cell connected to the particular access line that is contained in a second subset of the strings of series-connected memory cells, determine whether that memory cell is deemed to be activated while applying the particular voltage level to the particular access line.
