3. if it didn't look like they did any research beyond finding out names for parents/siblings, we took off a point

4. If it looked like their profile would drop to a 5 but was ok, we ignored taking away the wrong layout point

5. We also decided that for some reason no one had the photo box or other text box so we didn't penalize them for that.
