# Why the list looks as it does

> How a search's people score now: the cut-off, people per score band, how many are shortlisted, why the rest were rejected, which must-haves profiles fail to show, and the best people just under the cut-off. Read it before preview_scoring: it says whether the cut-off, a must-have or a weight is what keeps the list short. Does not use credits.

Needs scope `searches:read`.
