[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For example, swim cloud recruiting ranking page says 95th for high school class of 202x in the entire state/commonwealth. Is that good enough to... swim in college? Get a division 1 scholarship? I haven't the faintest idea.[/quote]

Power index is a better measure than state ranking. The best Power Index is 1.0. Power index in the low-mid teens is a good starting place to get some money for D1 swimming. How much money varies greatly depending on type of team/school. Almost no one is getting full ride, Power Index close to 1 probably. [/quote]

Swim cloud power index is in the high 50s.

High 50s would not swim in D1 or a competitive D2/3, unless they were amazing in one event and crap at everything else. And when I say amazing, I mean literally top 50 in the nation to make up for having zero flexibility for a college team. If the high 50 is because all their best three events were 45-55 in the index, it would be tough to find a college team.[/quote]

Can you explain roughly what the power index needs to be for a chance at d1 and competitive d2/d3?[/quote]

There’s no hard and fast number, and there are always exceptions- but generally under 20. [/quote]
