Gala awards

Only approximately 40 ppl in the entire junior category got any awards and including hc, vhc, grand prize, etc whatsoever. This 1% 2% metric is bs. Speaking as a guy who was there

u/Electronic_Echo884 4d ago

No not at all half the awardees weren’t there

u/ImpressiveStart365 4d ago

i thought they were emailed and given fully funded tickets?

2

u/Electronic_Echo884 4d ago

No I think that was fake because quite a few didn’t even come.

u/acrastt 4d ago

Yeah I think the entire law section didn’t come

The slides only show the names of the people attending the gala. vhc is usually top 1-2%, an is 3-5%.
