No
No but we were flat out told that at a meet....by the judges...but unfortunately they did not tell my dd what the deduction was....so...oh well....is what it is. They did tell her that if she did a 1.5 and then the full at the end she qould not have the deduction, but my kid isnt ready for that yet, hah!
My guess is that since she opens with a 1.5 which I believe is a C and ends with an A she can get a deduction for imbalance of elements - all the hard elements first and easy at the end. If you are opening with a 1/2 or a full (Bs) and finishing with a layout (A) there really isn’t a composition deduction.
