Level 2 is a recreational level in all of the *USA Gymnastic Sports. It is not competitive. Therefore, there are no official standards that have been set to qualify for level 2. Depending on the gym, the decision is subjectively made by the instructor, recreational director, or other qualified employee of the facility. The instructor may move a gymnast to level 2 once all or most of the level 1 skills can be consistently performed in practice. Some may require the gymnast to learn some of the level 2 skills before moving up, so that he/she will be able to perform the level 2 routines/passes.

Other factors affect the decision as well, such as age, behavior, scheduling, and even potential. Sometimes older gymnasts are bumped up a level prematurely to be with other older kids. Other times, gymnasts are either held back or moved up because of behavioral issues. An easygoing gym might even allow gymnasts to be moved up or down a level if it accomodates the parents' schedule better (moving up is very rare in this case). Furhtermore, some gymnasts who have extraordinary potential need to be in a class that will be extraordinarily challenging.
As a parent, the best way to tell if your child has been overlooked and should be moved up is if he/she is getting bored in class. Either he/she doesn't like the sport at all, or it's too easy. Repetition in class does not mean the class isn't learning anything new; they are perfecting their skills and basics. Gymnastics is a very slow sport to learn properly. The coach should be able to report which level 1 skills need improvement and why. Moving up too soon can either challenge the gymnast to work harder and "catch up" to the other gymnasts, but more often causes him/her to feel inferior and frustrated, at which point the gymnast will completely lose all interest. Do take the time, however, to evaluate the effectiveness of the instructor or program goals.

My daughter is a level 4 gymnast in California and she qualified for state this year. She needed an AA score of 35.5 or greater. I'm not sure if this is the same in Ohio. I also know that this is the only level that regular meets can qualify you for state, level 5 and higher have to qualify at zone to move on to state. Hope this helps!
