"Point" marking method in Assignment 2.7

I notice that there is a "Point" grade type in assignment 2.7. This isn't a term I hear used in the UK where the default en language pack is generally appropriate.

I understand that this term is used in the the US.

What do others think? If point isn't a good term what should it be - Numerical?

Hi Ray

I use the term points in New Zealand, often saying something like "if you mark out of 20 points make the maximum mark '20' or if you mark out of 100% make it '100'" but agree and think 'numeric'would be a good term here.
