This is an often asked question here. AR is aware we're all getting a set review of 3.5 and they are "working on it" (for months now). I really wouldn't put much stock in it. G+ carries little weight these days.

It's a mystery to us all. There ARE no reviews on AR, other than any testimonials you post. Stars? Nope.

Every member shares the same rating - it's been like that for a few years now - and we don't even have a 'rating system' here!

It's a mystery, Jackie!

As others  have pointed out, that's a default score that everyone displays. They aren't actually pulling our review data.

Everyone seems to have that and my point is if you are going to rate people based on nothing, at least give a 5 out of 5.
