The way it is supposed to work IS 5x, rather than 3x, it's just where the multiplier goes

    Okay, learning is supposed to work this way (see MM7, for instance).

    LS = learning skill level

    XP =
    none: 1 * raw XP
    normal: (1 + 0.09 + LS*1) * raw XP
    expert: (1 + 0.09 + LS*2) * raw XP
    master: (1 + 0.09 + LS*3) * raw XP
    GM: (1 + 0.09 + LS*5) * raw XP

    The first three (normal, expert and master work correctly [as in MM7]), but GM works something like

    GM: (1 + 0.09 + LS)*5 * raw XP

    In other words, the right parenthesis got moved over two characters in the formula. This obviously smacks of a bug that's really just a typo.

    So again, with GM you DO get a big bonus, even the "correct" way, it's just not a ludicrous bonus.
