When p=.5, the probability of success is equal to the probability of failure. This means that the distribution will be symmetrical because as the number of trials increases, the probability of obtaining x successes will be equal to the probability of obtaining x failures. Therefore, the binomial distribution will always be symmetric when p=.5.
