Mistake type score weight coefficients per specialization

Score weight coefficient of a mistake type is the gravity of a mistake expressed by an index. For example, a stylistic mistake made in a translation with the "Legal" specialization is more considerable than the same mistake in a translation with the "IT" specialization (a mistake with an index 1.2 impacts the score more than a mistake with an index 0.5).

Go to "System" —> "Mistake types" —> "Mistake types list" to view and edit score weight coefficients per specialization.
