Jedi are much, much more powerful in all respects than other characters in KOTOR1 (haven't played 2 yet, where they said they were going to address that). Non-Jedi characters have a lot of difficulty getting more than one attack. When they do, they turn out to be much more vulnerable to blaster fire and they don't really get anything of substance to counter the introduction of Force powers. Just not enough feats. By the time Carth's level 20, you'll have been picking feats in the "oh, what's there left to take?" category for a good five levels.
