The following list of highest historical scores in figure skating contains the highest scores earned before the 2018-2019 season under the ISU Judging System (IJS). The 2018-2019 season began on 1 July 2018. After being trialed in 2003, the IJS replaced the old 6.0 system in the 2004-2005 figure skating season. Up to and including the 2017-2018 season, the Grade of Execution (GOE) scoring system for each program element ranged between -3 and +3. Starting with the 2018-2019 season, the GOE was expanded to range between -5 and +5. Hence, the International Skating Union (ISU) have restarted all records from the 2018-2019 season and all previous statistics have been marked as historical. Accordingly, this page lists only the highest scores achieved before the 2018-2019 season, using the -3/+3 GOE scoring range. The following lists are included:
Note: In the case of personal best lists, only one score is listed for any one skater, i.e. their personal best. The absolute best lists may include more than one score for the same skater. The ISU only recognizes the best scores that are set at international competitions run under the ISU's rules, and does not recognize, for example, scores that are obtained at national figure skating championships. The competitions recognized by the ISU are: Winter Olympics (including the team event), Youth Olympics (including the team event), World Championships, World Junior Championships, European Championships, Four Continents Championships, GP events, Junior GP events, Challenger Series events, and World Team Trophy.
