Of course, as with all of the professional IFBB events, the winner of the Arnold Classic gets qualified for the 2015 Olympia.
But for the next four placings, the Arnold Classic, as a Tier I event, offers a bounty of points in the Olympia Qualification Series
Second place at the Arnold earns eight points; third takes seven points; fourth, six points; and fifth earns five points.
The Arnold Classic is the only Tier I event. No other events offer as many points to the non-victors. Here are the standings of the Olympia Qualification Series pre-Arnold:
