unlevel bed

so I did my first large print 208mm wide, and I noticed that in the z-y corner of the bed the nozzle was touching, causing my filament to jam a little and about a mm to not print on my first layer. I ran the Gcode for the calibration but it is only a 3 point cal? in matter control there is an option in printer leveling for 7 and 13 point disk,and require leveling to print. if I chose 13 point and require leveling to print will it cal correctly?

It should, I had bed issues and ran the 13 point and I can print most anything now, I don't notice any uneven printing issues.
I used a feeler gauge though, so I knew exactly what the gap was between the bed and the nozzle.

I did the 7 point and turned auto cal on but then my nozzle was like 5 mil off the bed
