All of the tax preparation software must be checked by the IRS and must comply with all of the tax laws. If you enter the same data ---correctly --- into any of the software programs you should get the same results. When you get a wildly different result with them it means you entered something differently. We have no way to know which program you used correctly.
If you can describe where you entered your 1098T and which education credit you were working on, perhaps someone here can help you understand what happened.
And...can you be claimed as a dependent by someone else?
