SPECIFIC RANKINGS BY TEST TYPE

These specific rankings are narrow rankings by test type, in which those with the highest scores in each of the specific tests in the competition will be awarded.

In tests 1 and 3 of the Ayurveda Competition 2018, specific narrow rankings will be made for each test type (A, B, C, D, E, F, G or H).

In test 1 there are specific rankings: 1-A, 1-B, 1-C, 1-D, 1-E, 1-F, 1-G AND 1-H.

In test 3 there are specific rankings: 3-A, 3-B, 3-C, 3-D, 3-E, 3-F, 3-G AND 3-H.

For the specific rankings, the participation group will not be taken into account. For example, a participant from groups 16-24 can also answer the 1-A in the time slot allocated to test 1, so it will compete with everyone else in this specific ranking for test 1-A.

Similarly, a participant from groups 03-06 can answer in the time allocated to test 3 and test 3G and will thus be able to participate in the specific ranking for test 3G.

For the other four tests of the 2020 Ayurveda Competition, i.e. tests 2, 4, 5 and 6, specific rankings will be made and all participants will be included.

In test 2 there will be specific ranking 2, in test 4 there will be specific ranking 4, in test 5 there will be specific ranking 5 and in test 6 there will be specific ranking 6.
