The gymnastics format returned to the aggregation format used in 1928 but not in 1932. Each nation entered a team of eight gymnasts (Bulgaria had only 7). All entrants in the gymnastics competitions (Frang of Luxembourg did not compete in the floor exercise) performed both a compulsory exercise and a voluntary exercise, with the scores summed to give a final total. The scores in the floor exercise were added to the other apparatus scores to give individual all-around scores; the top six individual scores on each team were summed to give a team all-around score. No separate finals were contested.
