Annotated Rubrics
By understanding how each of your events will be judged, you can better prepare for competition. These annotated rubrics are identical to the ones that appear in the Competitive Events guide, and they are annotated with clarifications, advice, and warnings from students who have previously competed in the events. These presentations will help clarify the event and serve as a guide to you should approach the event.
Disclaimer: These annotations are made by students for students. They are suggestions and clarifications based on our competitive event experiences, NOT a binding ruling from the judges. Rubrics may change from year to year, and judges vary from conference to conference.
