I actually could also use a custom similarity class that always returns 1.0
then I could use small boost factors such as ^1, ^2, ^3, etc.

But I want to do this only in some specific queries (that may contain other
fields besides studentId)

How could I do this, use the custom similarity class only for some queries?
Is it possible?

Thanks!
