Nationals Raw Scores

Post by elephantower »

What are the average medaling scores for new, second-year, and permanent events at nationals? If you don't have an exact number, can you just estimate the range for each type of event (80-90%? 90-100%?)?

We don't release raw scores. Hence you aren't going to be able to get any general answers for this.

On the contrary, I would say definitely aim for a 100% ;).

I think they did release raw scores last year, that is how I found out I lost Tie-breakers in both rotor egg drop and meteorology(7th...)

I've seen raw scores on some of our old event writeups (Protein Modeling comes to mind), but either way I feel like experienced teams that have medaled will have some idea of how many questions they got right, right?

It was 8 for rotor, but they were on the national test disc.

yeah, but we still lost the TB. (and 0.01 seconds away from a placement...)

well i know 1st for shock value was like 97 points, and second was like 95... somewhere around that. Helicopters 3 mins won and 2:50 was second. They did release the scores for individual events but i dont think it is available to te general public, only to the teams that went to nats.

Wait they release raw scores to competitors? We went to Nats, but they didn't tell us our scores. However, having competed there, I can tell you the medalling score in Geomaps was probably around 97% (1 question wrong), and the medalling score in designer genes was probably around a 97% as well (2-3 questions wrong).
