# ProScore results and rankings

> How to configure and view results, tiebreakers, and awards in Gym Art Meets if you're coming from ProScore.

**Prerequisites:** You have [configured score settings](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/individual-score-settings) and scores have been [entered](https://docs.gymart.org/scoring/enter-scores-judges-companion).

## In ProScore

ProScore generates various result reports from its desktop application: Event Results, Event Results Multi, Meet Results, Team Results, and Meet Certificates. Results can be published to MeetScoresOnline (MSO), USA Gymnastics, and MyUSAGym. LiveServer provides in-venue web-based results over the local network. DakGen pushes live scores to Daktronics scoreboards. Reports are printed directly or exported as PTF files for submission to state organizations.

## In Gym Art Meets

### 1. Results Are Calculated Automatically

As scores are entered and verified, Gym Art Meets calculates rankings in real time for:

* **Individual apparatus** - rank by final score per apparatus
* **Individual all-around** - sum across all apparatus
* **Team apparatus** - sum of top N scores per apparatus
* **Team all-around** - sum of team apparatus scores

> See [Results](https://docs.gymart.org/results/index)

### 2. Tiebreakers (More Granular Than ProScore)

In ProScore, tiebreaker rules are typically determined by the selected federation's rules for the meet. Gym Art Meets lets you configure **separate tiebreakers** for each ranking context:

| Context               | What It Ranks           | Configurable Independently      |
| --------------------- | ----------------------- | ------------------------------- |
| Individual apparatus  | Per-apparatus ranking   | Yes                             |
| Individual all-around | All-around ranking      | Yes                             |
| Individual vault      | Vault-specific ranking  | Yes (extra: Best of 2 E then D) |
| Team apparatus        | Team apparatus ranking  | Yes                             |
| Team all-around       | Team all-around ranking | Yes                             |

All 8 tiebreaker algorithms are available for each context.

### 3. Tiebreaker Algorithm Mapping

| ProScore Rule               | Gym Art Meets Algorithm                                                                      |
| --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Shared rank (no break)      | [Do Not Break Ties](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/do-not-break-ties)                   |
| Execution first             | [Compare E then D](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/compare-e-then-d)                     |
| Difficulty first            | [Compare D then E](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/compare-d-then-e)                     |
| AA total decides            | [All-Around Score](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/all-around-score)                     |
| Progressive drop            | [Cascading All-Around](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/cascading-all-around)             |
| Progressive drop + E then D | [Cascading AA then E then D](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/cascading-aa-then-e-then-d) |
| Older athlete wins          | [Oldest Age Wins](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/oldest-age-wins)                       |
| Younger athlete wins        | [Youngest Age Wins](https://docs.gymart.org/tiebreakers/youngest-age-wins)                   |

### 4. Rank Method (Bump Ranks)

In ProScore, tied gymnasts may or may not skip a rank number based on federation rules. In Gym Art Meets, this is the **Bump Rank on Tie** setting:

* **On**: 1st, 1st, 3rd (skip 2nd) - standard competition ranking
* **Off**: 1st, 1st, 2nd (dense ranking)

> See [How bump ranks on tie works](https://docs.gymart.org/levels/bump-ranks)

### 5. Awards and Subdivisions

In ProScore, award categories are determined by age division and level groupings. In Gym Art Meets, the **"treat subdivisions as award groups"** toggle controls this:

* **On** - each subdivision gets its own rankings and awards
* **Off** - subdivisions are for scheduling only; all gymnasts in the competition are ranked together

> See [Create subdivisions](https://docs.gymart.org/competitions/create-subdivisions)
