2020-2022 was online. But it said this would not affect the score. I actually said Yes to this question before and score still not showing. I just changed my answer to NO today.

If I wait for 24 hours and I still don't get point. Should I withdraw and maybe create the profile again?

Couldn’t find this exact degree. Are you also sure it isn’t a diploma? Was there a bridging program which is why you mentioned the high school diploma?
