So, you may have noticed that there are several questions in the test that are misleading...This is done primarily to test the confidence of the test taker. I basically want to know that they know the answer, and that they are confident that they know the answer. If I spoon feed answers and throw softball questions, I'm never going to find out what I want to know.

That being said, the answer I was looking for, in relationship to the "ranking score" is the following:

There is no "ranking score" in the sense that ranking is not scored the same way as a Match score or a qualification score. A teams ranking is determined by the calculated sum of a teams qualification score. In the event of a Tie, the sum of a teams auto score will be used as a tie breaker. Should there still be a tie, the following scores (in order) will be used to break the tie: climb points -> sum of the conjunction of teleop points and foul points -> then random sorting by FMS.

Hope that helps!
