What are admission thresholds?

Admission thresholds are like the minimum number you need to get into a special group or club.

Imagine you’re trying to join a really cool game where everyone gets a ticket to play. The rules say, “You can only come in if you have at least 10 tickets.” That number 10 is your admission threshold, it’s the minimum you need to get into that game.

Think of it like a playground club. If you want to join the super fun swing group, you need to know at least 3 swings. That 3 is your admission threshold. If you know 2 swings, you can’t join yet, but if you learn one more, you’re in!

Sometimes, the number changes depending on how many people are trying to get in. It’s like when the swing group gets really crowded and says, “Okay, now you need to know 4 swings” so there's enough room for everyone.

Admission thresholds help decide who gets into a group or a class, just like knowing how many swings you need to join that cool club!
