full points

Maximum marks achieved

Full points means the maximum possible score or complete credit.

In British English, it often acknowledges someone who got everything right or made an excellent point: Full points for effort.

The phrase can be sincere or slightly ironic, granting someone credit even when the achievement is minor: Full points for showing up on time, at least.
