If selected to continue they are then put through mega-audition rounds of auditions to gauge their versatility. The top 18 dancers are selected as finalists at the conclusion of the mega audition and advance to the competition's main phase where they will compete for the votes of the broadcast viewing audience which along with the opinions of a panel of judges determine which dancers will move on to the next stage from week to week.
