Maybe HS First requires a lot of programming, the regular FIRST for 9-14 does not require any programming to advance. It is mainly focussed on presentation skills rather than technical skills.
- MattGrommes 12y agoThat's not specifically true, especially on a team level. Some of your team members might not have to program but you do have to get the robot to do stuff well in order to advance.
- cloudwizard 12y agoYou can win the robot game and it has no bearing on advancement. The key is the 3 interviews. In the robot design interview, the number of points for quality of engineering is low. Most of the points are in the show your work category. A better presentation of a poor design will score better than a poor presentation of a quality result.
