Why's the point system so high?
Why don't they just make it:
A = 5
B = 4
C = 3
D = 2
E = 1

The old system was lower IIRC, but they changed it to a higher one. No idea why.

You can get bonus points for doing keyskills and critical thinking and stuff like that for stuff like 15 extra points.
Doing it this way is easier than having 0.5 points or whatever.
