it sounds as though your cutter isn't callibrated square if I'm reading your post correctly.

What cutter have you got.

Are you scoring the full face of the tile to the edges..?

 

[rick_it_2004]

the tile cutter is similar to this one Home Depot - 20 in. Tile Cutter customer reviews - product reviews - read top consumer ratings

I am scoring completely, umm, I think, as the wheel slips on the downward slope of the tile at the top of the line

 

[DHTiling]

try scoring more than once if the score line is poor.

If you read one of the reviews he states the cutting guide is not square.
