 HOW TO SCORE
Give one overall score (1–10) per poster. Use 5 for solid/acceptable work; 10 for exceptional.
 
Judge against these factors (keep it simple):
  • Scientific Merit & Originality – Clear aim or question; importance/novelty to plastic surgery.
  • Methods & Analysis — Appropriate design, statistics/analysis, and stated limitations.
  • Results & Data Quality — Data are accurate, sufficient, and easy to interpret.
  • Conclusions & Relevance — Conclusions match the data; clinical or educational impact is evident.
  • Clarity & Visual Design — Logical flow (Intro/Methods/Results/Conclusions), legible at ~2–3 ft, figures/tables readable, minimal clutter, disclosures shown when applicable.
  • Compliance with TSPS Poster Submission Guidelines — Correct size/orientation and required sections; authors/programs properly listed. (Reference online if needed.)
 
Score anchors:
10 Outstanding • 8–9 Excellent • 6–7 Good • 5 Meets standard • 3–4 Limited • 1–2 Deficient
 
Ties & notes:
Avoid ties when possible. If tied, favor higher scientific merit and clarity of results.
