Have to mention the experience cap.
Anything beyond 4 or 5 levels (over you), rewards the same experience as whatever the cap level mob is.

So when you are level 20, a 24th (or maybe the cap is 26th.. not sure exactly) level mob might get you 224 experience (picking a number here, not sure the actual amount). However, if you were to kill a level 44 mob, it won't get you any more experience then the 24th (or 26th) level mob.
helpful info.
