When your still on taris, don't level up once for your main character. Keep him in the rear with a blaster and fight with someone else ( I used the wookie). When you get off of taris he will have the experience to be lvl 5 - 7 but will only be lvl 2. After you get to be a jedi then you can start leveling up, gaining force points and force powers where you wouldnt have before. Thus, instead of being a lvl 6 scout and a lvl 14 jedi at the end, you will be a lvl 2 scout and a lvl 18 jedi. Makes quite the difference.
