I just finished my sab audition for their summer intensive in the 16-18 y/o age group, and since I pre-registered, my results are due to come in around a week. I actually feel pretty good about how I did (considering some random circumstances that I thought were going to hold me back a ton), but I did make some mistakes in some of the combinations. After my mistakes, I would recover and try to smile through it, and I made up for it by correcting myself when I did the left side. do the teachers keep that in mind when they think of your results? How detrimental are mistakes to your audition results, and how do they affect them?
Also, are audition classes for older age groups typically entirely on pointe? I ve been to several other ones (like sfb, mcb, etc.) and they were more half and half. This was the first where it was only pointe.

Every school handles their auditions somewhat differently. I wouldn’t and couldn’t tell you how making a mistake affected your actual audition. Especially in your age group. There is no need to tell you SAB is an elite program. Anyone can make a mistake. It is your overall dancing as well as your body type that will matter most. That along with the pool of dancers your age trying out that you will be judged against. All things being equal if another dancer with your ability and facilities for ballet made no mistakes, they would likely take her. If another dancer who made no mistakes but who had the wrong body type for this SI or executed it not as well as you, they won’t take them but might take you. You are just going to have to wait for the results.
