Default Quality|1|Theme
1: There is already a very similar major to this one on MTS. Although having multiple majors on the same subject is fine, new majors should be different enough to offer a meaningful variety to downloaders.

2: The theme of the major does not continue throughout the class titles; majors should have a goal of learning about a subject.

3: The theme and the class titles are cohesive.

5: The theme is unique and fun and fits the game perfectly. Thank you.

Default Quality|2|Spelling and Grammar
1:This major has many grammatical, spelling, and punctuation errors in the text, to the point at which it is difficult to read or unclear what the text is supposed to mean.

2:This major has quite a few grammatical, spelling and punctuation errors.

3:This major has some grammar and spelling issues.

4:This major has a few grammar and spelling issues, but is mostly correct. Great!

5:The spelling and grammar are perfect. Great job!

Default Quality|3|Skill Requirements
1:The skill requirements are unreasonably high or low for the type of major.

3:The skills are mostly good, but a few levels seem too high or too low to be realistic.

5:The skill requirements make sense for the major, in line with EA skill requirements. Thank you.

Default Quality|4|Class Title Length
1:The class titles are so long that they will not fit in the user interface. Please make sure that all class titles are fully visible in-game.

2:The class titles are mostly ok in terms of length, but some of them seem too long - please double-check that they all display correctly in-game, and don't overlap any other text in the user interface.

5:Your class titles are short and sweet, or at least short enough to fit in the UI panels. Lovely!

Default Quality|5|Writing Quality
1:The class titles don't make sense, or are very short and don't contain anything to make the major interesting. If you're stuck for ideas, try making them funny!

2:Most of the class titles are interesting and readable, but a few of them could use some editing for readability.

3:Your class titles are readable and make sense, but they're a little plain and could use something to make them more interesting or entertaining.

4:Your class titles are readable, and interesting or entertaining. Great!

5:Your class titles are fantastic: witty, interesting, and/or very clever. Wonderful!
