Just a quick summary; a bout a year a go I got rated a 7 facially by a paid sources. Thought I was set to go! But, More recently, I got a more expensive one, and got put at a 5.5. This sparked a curiosity in me. Please Reddit put my confusion to rest. Thanks :)

Also, I don’t want this text to create any sort of rate Bias! Just wanted to share my experience.
