Should I enter the full amount of the scholarship I received (Pell Grant) under the deductions and credits part or should the amount I put in be after education expenses?

You should enter the grant after the education expenses in the "Education" section.  

If you pay any out of pocket expenses after the grant, the program will calculate an education credit if you qualify.  If the grant covers the full amount of tuition, no credit is allowed.
