Why are so many of the posters focused on the 2019 times? The 2021 LC cut times are faster than the 2019 LC cut times (at least for the 12 and unders), so why would the 2019 times be the ones to look at as a goal?
Because 2019 was the last normal season. Since then, several meets have adjusted QTs or meet format to keep the # of athletes per session lower. As we return to normal, some think the best guess is the last normal season format.
I haven’t seen many meets return to easier cuts. Which ones?
JO for one. In 2021 it was the "wave 3" for the 14&U kids. This year it went back to similar to 2019 (or you can say 2020 since the cuts were released but the meet was cancelled). Summer LC for 14&U was a different format in 2021 than usual as well.

Here are last years cuts, probably won’t be much different

last years cuts and 2019 cuts are very different, at least for my 13 yo DD.
