It depends on what level and age you are. For, singles skating novice you have to be younger and must be able to do doubles and some attempt triples. In junior you have to do double and triples. And in seniors, the level that goes to the Olympics, you mostly do triples. For all the levels, you must pass a moves in the field test and a freeskate test. Also to go to nationals you must qualify at regionals and sectionals unless you are competing in seniors and were in the top 5 the previous year. Hope this helps. it depends how old you are

Your coach should be able to tell you what level of competitive figure skating to start at (pre-juvenile, juvenile, pre-novice, novice, junior, senior) or if Competitive is right for you in the first place. If not, you can always compete in the more recreational side of figure skating, i.e. Starskate (entry level, pre-preliminary, preliminary, junior bronze, senior bronze, junior silver, senior silver, gold.)

Is figure skating harder than hockey?
There is really no correct answer to this question. It depends on what each person thinks. Figure skating is hard because you've got to be able to twirl and then stop twirling and not get dizzy, and also executing jumps perfectly. In hockey, you have to be able to slam into players and continue on, and focus on a small puck while focusing on keeping it under you control. --- In my experience, figure skaters tend to be able to beat hockey players in races, but hockey is a game in and of itself, which skating is only a part of, however, figure skaters are usually better skaters, but you could be the best skater in the world and still not good at playing on a team, handling a puck, etc.
