A definite unfair grade

Today I found out that I received a really unfair score on my final project, he gave me a ten out of 40 pts, and when I looked at his scoring sheet I should have gotten a 27 or 28, I only had three things not working. I know that I can’t talk to this professor because he is egotistical, I put tons of hours into this final project, and even though I am transferring I don’t want this final grade to haunt me when I transfer, so I am wondering if I should go talk to the dean or talk to the provost? Bc I know that this truly is a unfair grade this teacher has graded me really hard compared to other students and idk y? I looked at a paper that my friend did (from another hw) and for one problem that he got right, I only had one small thing missing, so instead of giving me partial credit he counted it all wrong. I am so ****ed right now, I spent literally hours on my final project, so if he treats me this way now then I’m glad I’m transferring now. Bc I can’t stand teachers who can’t grade fairly. Plus bc this school is a smaller school he teaches most of the CS majors, He is absolutely one of the worst teachers I’ve ever had in my college career. This final was worth 35% of our final grade too. Here are the point totals that he gives:Points Possible Feature or functionality
2 Submitted properly (according to instructions)
5 Front page shows shared bookmarks
3 Front page permits login and account creation
3 Login works (username/password combo)
3 Create user works (including duplicate names, and password generation)
5 Page after login shows appropriate bookmarks and share/unshare/delete options
3 Add bookmark functionality works
3 Add category functionality works
2 Delete bookmark functionality works
2 Share/unshare bookmark functionality works
2 Add comments to bookmark functionality works
2 Delete my account functionality works

5 Code layout, modularity, style, and comments

40 TOTAL POINTS POSSIBLE (“Final Project” Grading Category)

Definitely if I had only 3 things not working according to this I shouldn’t have anyway possible received a 10. Clearly this is an injustice and since I am transferring I’m wondering if I should escalate it, bc I know its useless to talk to the professor.
