Apotheoses Square (at the end of the Sambodromo), where the results are counted and announced on Ash Wednesday, just after Carnival.
Viradouro, the last school, will be dropped from the Special Group of the best 12 schools to Group A. The highest scoring school in Group A (Sao Clemente) joins the Special Group for 2011 Samba Parade.
The Samba Parade is a glorious competition between the Rio samba schools, for which scores are given by the judges.
There are ten categories in which the schools are judged.
There are 4 judges of every category (altogether 40 of them) and they are allocated all along the Sambodromo's samba run-way, in their booths.
Scores are given on a scale 7-10 (with fractions), 10 being the best.
