Thanks for the reply I know the scoring and how the selection committee goes about it just bc I've followed LSU/USA gymnastics for a good while now. I was just always curious as to the elite and level 10 stuff. Wasn't sure if one of those were considered better than the other.

When it comes to the elite world (Olympic and World Championship level) At least in the United States, gymnasts have to qualify for that level of competition by doing a qualifier and showing compulsory (proof of mastery of all the required basic skills that make up a routine) and optional (additional high level skills that you have learned and plan to compete) skills

There it is. Didn't realize elite was the the term for Olympic and championship levels. I thought those were in a class of their own.

That’s why someone like Laurie Hernandez at 16 got to represent the USA in Rio

My post made it seem like I was hating on Lauri. I was just using her as an example bc thats who popped in my head as one of the youngest of recent Olympics.
