  Q: What happens if two school ingredients are tied for least remaining? How many points does each player receive?
  A: Both tied players receive the full points for that rank. Continue scoring for the next rank, also at full value.

Consider an example:

There are 6 blue, 5, yellow, 5 orange, and 4 green pieces left in the supply in a four player game. The player with the green card receives the first place reward (12 points). The players with the yellow and orange cards are both tied for second, so they each receive the second place reward (8 points). The holder of the blue card is in third place, so he gets the third place reward (4 points).
