    Notes
    1. In episode 4, Jessie, Kassidy and Linnea tied for highest score.
    2. In episode 5, Belinda was deemed unfit to participate in the shoot for medical reasons, and thus only had the opportunity to accumulate a score of 9 for the challenge.[38] In the interest of fairness, she was granted exemption from elimination. While she did technically have the lowest overall score, she wasn't eligible for elimination. Panel resumed with the other 8 contestants who took part in both the challenge and photo shoot.
    3. In episode 6, Linnea was immune from elimination after winning the challenge, and also achieved the highest combined score at panel. This episode also featured a double elimination. Christy was eliminated after she placed lower than Kassidy on the leaderboard, who was last at the time. Despite scoring higher than Christy, Vitoria was also unable to score higher than Kassidy.
    4. This episode featured a double elimination. Linnea was eliminated after Daisy placed above her on leaderboard, bumping her to third place. Daisy was eliminated after Aleyna placed above her on the leaderboard as well, bumping her to third place, and Linnea to fourth.
