Ben Stoeger Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 I shot my first USPSA match on 8-6 (a special classifier). I have been waiting and waiting and waiting for my initial classification. I HATE WAITING DAMNIT! Any time now guys! Later, Ben A54313 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimel Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 (edited) Oh yeah...I remember that wait myself! And then waiting for the card to actually come in the mail... Do you have your HHF's from the match? If so, go use the Classifier Calculator(link is in the classifier area here) and see what your percentages are and do the math. It will be very close to what you actually get. Edited September 10, 2005 by kimel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Stoeger Posted September 10, 2005 Author Share Posted September 10, 2005 Yeah I used that Calc. BUT..... what if the HHF changed? What if my understanding of how the initial classification is calculated is wrong?(Best 4 of most recent 6 right?) What if what if what if..... See! I'm going nuts over here!

Jake Di Vita Posted September 10, 2005 Share Posted September 10, 2005 It's first 4, or best 6 of most recent 8. Trust me....the HHF's didn't change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Stoeger Posted September 11, 2005 Author Share Posted September 11, 2005 Jake, I found this on an old post here: "Earning A Classification To become classified, a member must have at least four valid scores from different classifier courses in the USPSA database. If more than four scores are in the database when the averages are calculated, the best four of the most recent six valid scores will be used. Any scores in excess of the most recent six valid scores are not used for the initial classification." Is this no longer the case? It means a great deal to me....

Jake Di Vita Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 I'm not sure about that old post but I am positive that it is the best 6 out of the most recent 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron Rodgers Posted September 11, 2005 Share Posted September 11, 2005 This is from the USPSA website: "Classification hit factors will be input every month. All classifiers received at USPSA headquarters on or before the 10th of the month will be input that same month. Those received after the 10th will be input and reported the following month. For initial classification, shooters who have 4 or more valid, different classifier scores input at Headquarters by the 10th of a month can expect to receive their classification card by the end of that same month. For reclassification, the most recent 8 unduplicated classifier scores are used for determining classification percentage, the two lowest which are not duplicates are dropped before averaging the remaining high six."
