I was just wondering how each state compares to the others within the united states. I know florida, california, and texas are pretty good but I was wondering where Wa fits and where the other states are ranked

What metric are you using to rank states (regions, more likely)? # of teams? Highest skills score? Worlds slots? Largest event regional championship (ERC)?For skills, I would just look at the World Skills Standings, but some regions (like Indiana) has had no events yet. I would liik at last year’s Worlds for a possible way to mesure teams (this is HS Worlds, to get to MS Worlds, just change the 3690 in the URL to 3691). I would wait untill before or after the ERCs are finished to get a better answer to your question.
Good luck!

Indiana almost always has a very powerful showing every year.

Here is my suggestion for ranking regions. Find the average TrueSkill rating of the top 16 teams in the region, by who is in the elimination rounds. For Indiana that would be the round of 8 because there are two divisions. I don’t have the API or enough knowledge to use it. If someone else could, that would be great.
My opinion is that Indiana, California, Florida, China, Taiwan, and Singapore are all amongst the best. It would be interesting to see a real ranking.
