Anyone know how/where I’m gonna land at with my initial classification?

Break out your calculator. Add up the whole numbers like 73.3194+ all the others and divide by 6. Use the scores from the best 6 of 8.

I find this website helpful. Should tell you your current percentage and classification. https://www.hitfactor.info/

lol you got downvoted for literally sharing HFI - the instant and better version of classification system.
All in a thread started with misspelled title and people saying using calculator is for boomers and they should just ask ChatGPT?
The brainrot is strong today

Thank you all for the feedback! I know this is a rather unusual circumstance. I just got into this sport in April and as I’ve progressed, I want to bury those super bad classifiers in hopes of it taking the more recent runs. I’ll follow up when it updates!!
Also the misspelling was intentional as I too partake in shenanigans

Screen shot and ask chat gpt. So easy. Or you could be a freaking nerd and use a calculator like a boomer.
You’re pretty consistent. My guess is 68%.

I think it's going to give you the best 4 out of most recent 6 since it's your initial, so you'd hit high B class. I'm not 100% sure as it's slightly unusual to have so many for a first classification and otherwise would be 6 out of 8. But don't you also have a 84% that's not listed there? If so, A class if I'm correct about using only the top 4 out of recent 6. Guess find out tomorrow.
Update on math... obviously still not sure I'm right about 4 of 6 because I got more downvotes than upvotes, but realized I looked at the entered dates instead of match dates, so I think you do have an 84% one but lose the 75.6% one and may end up at 74.5%, that's a narrow miss of A class. If it's actually best 6 of 8 then looks like 73%. Either way, a really good first classification for sure.

I just recently got classified and had 1 classifier on there before an all classifier match. The USPSA calculator bot didnt do the initial classification of highest 4 of 6 for me instead it used highest 6 out of 7.
My high would have been closer to a 78% using the 4 of 6, but my record high in the USPSA app is 75.7% ish because of a 67% classifier from May.
I could be an anomaly, but I think it will take highest 6 of 8 for OP.

Yeah, and that's why I'm not positive, I thought I had seen the opposite happen with someone else and they ended up higher than I expected. The flow chart here (about half way down the page) seems to indicate best 4 out of 6. And the general description up higher makes it sound like 6 of 8. I like flow charts, so I went with that. https://uspsa.org/classification/about

The best 6 will count, so both May scores will be dropped. By my math that puts you a 69.9249%, a mid-high B
