How long does it usually take for you to complete a grade?
It takes me about half a year just to learn everything from one grade before im good enough to take the exam! but it didnt take me that long when i was practising for my lower grades. i think im abit slow :s

Half a year is pretty good, I think. You have to take the time to improve your technique and everything like that.

I took 2 years to get to my 1st, 1 year to get to my 2nd, 2 months to get to my 3rd and 2 months to get to my 4th, so I`ve sort of evened out.

It isn`t the time. It is how good you REALLY are after half a year. Better to pass and know everything very well then barely pass.

All my grades up to now are passed with distinction and merits, but i would like to get to grade 8 before i leave college (grade 6 now). Music isnt a race, but theres certainly alot of competition...
