Training scores

"The evaluations are important because a higher rating will mean sponsors."

- Haymitch Abernathy



Training scores are rankings given to tributes after their private training session in front of the Gamemakers. They range from one to twelve, with one being the lowest and twelve being the highest. The scores give the people in the Capitol an idea of which tributes have the best chance in the arena, and therefore, which ones to bet on.

Other tributes often use the scores to decide who will be a threat to them during the Games.

Private Training Session
The scores are decided privately on the last day of training. The tributes are called into the Training Center one at a time; the male preceding the female from each district, starting with District 1 and ending with District 12. During their session, they can work at any of the stations, such as camouflage, bow and arrow, or knife throwing. The Gamemakers watch the tributes and evaluate their performance. After fifteen minutes, or once the Gamemakers believe that they have seen enough, they dismiss the tribute and call in the next.

Tactics
Most tributes desire the highest scores possible. The Career Tributes generally score between eight and ten. Sometimes, tributes aspire for a low training score so they appear anemic and frail, but then catch the rest of the tributes off guard. Johanna Mason, a female tribute from District 7 and the victor of the 71st games, successfully used that strategy. An unidentified male tribute got a 3 as his training score before he won his Games.

The night after the sessions, the scores are televised to all of Panem. Each tribute's photo is shown with their district, score, and odds of winning. 0 to 4 would mean a tribute is very easy to kill 5 to 8 means that the tribute is only good at on thing for example foxface was very smart and she made it to 5th place she committed suciside proberly because cato or thresh would brutally kill her and petea won by staying by katniss otherwise cato would have proberly killed him very easy because cato had all round skill  .tribute with a score of 9 to 11 means the tribute is very leathel and skilled and you wouldn't want to mess with usually tributes with this score are normally career tributes and have been trained .example cato clove marvel and glimmer where all careers and where very feared by  tributes.you don't always have to be career to get high score thresh and katniss where not careers and they scored very high.katniss was very skilled with and bow and thresh was very big and strong which gave him an advantage  but was killed by cato and the mutts finishing 4th .tributes with a score of 12 means it is impossible to kill them katniss and Petea where both given this in the 75th hunger games
