COMPETITION SCORING How is the Competition scored?
• Memorials: Memorials are scored on a scale of 1-100 points and each memorial is evaluated by at least three (3) judges. The judges’ scores are averaged to determine the final score of the memorial. Administrative penalties accrue if the memorial arrives late and/or is formatted incorrectly, whereby points shall be deducted after the average memorial score is determined. • Oral Rounds: Each Oral Round is scored by a panel of three or more judges. Each individual team member is graded on a scale of 1-100 points. The judges’ scores for each individual are averaged, and the teammates’ individual final scores are then added together to determine the team’s overall score for that session. • For more information regarding the exact weight given to the memorials and the oral round scores in determining who advances to the Semi-Final and Final Rounds, please see the Official Rules.
