<p>Okay I got suckered in. Quick breakdown:</p>
<p>District Level: depending on how many apps there are there’s usually around 6-12 applicants interviewed, 3 of those win a 4K and 1 wins the 4k and goes on to the Area level</p>
<p>Area Level: around 10 applicants interviewed, around 4-5 win at least 6k and go on to State Finals</p>
<p>State Finals: 50ish people compete to increase their 6k awards up to 17.5k. There’s 8k, 10k, 12.5k, 15k, and 17.5k awards</p>
<p>Hope this helps!</p>
