			House reading:

			* '''After attraction, not instead of it.''' Asked too early, qualification is needy and judgmental ("why are you interrogating me?"). [[DHV]] or a clean [[direct game\|direct]] open first, then screen.<ref name="lingo" />
			* '''She jumps through a hoop; you do not.''' If she says she likes well-traveled men and you recite your itinerary, you just qualified yourself. [[Disqualification]] ("I consider myself well traveled when I make it to the grocery store") is the calibrated joke version of not auditioning.<ref name="lingo" />
			* '''Real screens are allowed.''' Loyalty, humor, whether she can leave, whether she drinks into blackouts, whether she wants kids — these are adult questions. The pickup trick is asking them from a position of already having options, not from hunger.
			* '''Investment is the thermometer.''' She tells a story, she moves seats, she suggests the next venue, she texts first. That is [[compliance (pickup)\|compliance]] and qualification overlapping. A yes-ladder of drink-holding is a cheap substitute for her actually liking you.
			* '''Sex is not a hoop you trick her through.''' High compliance on social asks is not a substitute for [[enthusiastic consent]]. This page is not last-minute-resistance folklore.

			[[Chase Amante]]'s version is less "A3 routine" and more: have a life, have standards, let her chase a bit, stop one-itis-auditioning. The [[Newbie assignment]] does not start at qualification. It starts at being able to talk.

			== Other schools ==
			'''Mystery-era A3.''' Explicit screening questions after female-to-male interest. Reward the answer you like; [[negging\|neg]] or takeaway the one you do not. Dated as a club script; the underlying claim (standards after spark) survived.<ref name="mm" />

			'''[[Hoop theory]].''' Who is jumping through whose hoops. If you are always the one explaining yourself, you are in her frame.

			'''RSD / "she qualifies herself."''' Get her talking about why she likes you. Inducing self-qualification is the same job with more mystique. Failure mode: fishing for compliments.

			'''London [[daygame]].''' Street qualification is often just "are you on the way somewhere / do you have a boyfriend / can you drink a coffee now." Fast screens, then a [[Day 2]].

			== Failure mode ==
			* Qualifying too early (no spark yet).
			* Qualifying yourself (résumé, money talk, "I am a nice guy").
			* Fake screens you do not care about ("do you cook?" as a line).
			* Using qualification as a status game to make her feel small. That is a [[neg]] in a lab coat.

'''Qualification''' is screening her for traits you actually want, after she has shown some [[IOI]]s. Mystery put it at '''A3''': she is interested; now she has to be interesting.

Two jobs at once:

# You demonstrate standards (you are not a slot machine that pays on beauty alone).
# She [[DHV]]s herself — cooking, books, travel, humor — so you have reasons to like her that are not her face.

In ordinary English this is "having standards" and "getting to know her." The pickup use is more tactical: asked too early, it is needy; asked after attraction, it is screening. The other, older sense of "qualify" in the community is ''approval-seeking'' (you qualifying yourself to her), which is the mistake A3 is meant to invert.
