BMUS doesn't record highest EX score; it records highest money score. If you are playing BMUS and entering scores on VJA, you may find that on slight score increases, your EX score actually decreased. The converse is also true--you will occasionally play a song and get a lower money score, but a higher EX value. You may wish to manually calculate your EX score after every play to make sure you're not short-changing yourself.

The name "money score" comes from the fact that in the early 5-key games, your score was called "money", and even included a dollar sign by your score, presumably to represent the riches you make as a DJ. Many people still refer to them as this, even though it's not been referred to in-game as such for ages.
