Hello
I had made my profile and have 422 points currently. Just came back to the profile and was wondering how else I can increase my points and got stuck on one thing which I am beginning to doubt is a mistake perhaps?

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/criteria-comprehensive-ranking-system/grid.html

From the above link in the first Section for Education, Currently I got 25 points. However, should I have got 50 points?

Education:
Bachelors degree (ECA equivalent to Bachelors 4 years)
Diploma for one year (ECA came as completion of college level certificate one-semester) so that won't give me any points

and my IELTS is:
Speaking 7.5 (CLB level 10)
Reading 7.5 (CLB level 9)
Listening 8.5 (CLB level 10)
Writing 7.5 (CLB level 10)

As per this: Points for CLB 9 or more on all four first official language abilities - should I not have got maximum 50 points for this section? or am I reading it wrong?

Any clarification on this would be so helpful!!
Thanks

You said it yourself, your diploma is one semester certificate which doesn't give you any point.
Your education level is bachelors degree, not two or more degrees
