The scoring system can be confusing if you are used to a point system. If there are going to be 12 semi-finalist, then the judges are told to circle their 12 favorite girls in each category. The 12 girls with the most circles from SS, EG, and interview are the semi-finalist. Then, the judges are told to pick thier favorite 5 out of the twelve to advance to the finalist. Once the finalist are chosen, the judges then rank the girls from the favorite to the least favorite of the top five. Different point amounts are awarded for each spot. I think it is like this and if not exactly it is very close to this: Winner-5 pts., 1st-3, 2nd-2, 3rd-1 and 4th-.5. For instance, if 3 judges put a girl to win and two put her as 4th, she would have 16 points. If 2 judges picked a girl to win and the other 3 judges had her as 1st runner-up, she would have a total score of 19 and would be the winner even though the other contestant received more winning votes.
