Sarah5string Posted August 4, 2010 Author Share Posted August 4, 2010 [quote name='Bilbo' post='914978' date='Aug 4 2010, 02:29 PM']You had me beat at Grade one [/quote] I only started doing them because I wanted to learn the theory and further my playing, plus doing the exams is motivation to practice and recognition for your hard work. Apparently you get UCAS points for grade 6-8 too! Well worth it Going to be doing my grade 6 this time next year, or that's the plan anyway!

Jarhead Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 That's better then I did when I took my grade 4, I think I got about 85 percent. I failed grade 6 mainly because what I know about music theory could go on the back of a matchbook. Zach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
