How Does Usaco Scoring Work

How is my USACO score calculated?

You get the % of test cases correct times the points for a problem. For example, if you get 5/10 test cases on a problem, you will get 166.66 points. If you get 10/20 test cases on a problem, you still get 166.66 points.

How many points do you need to pass USACO?

The cutoff scores to pass Bronze, Silver or Gold Division are roughly between 700 and 800 points, indicating passing 21 to 24 test cases out of 30.
