ff100 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I've trained in Goju & Kykoushin and both dojos let me and their other students know on the day of grading whether they had passed or not. This may be down to the format e.g spread across multiple days / weeks for all the different kyus / dans but after reading the threads it seems that some take some time before letting their students know the result. I was wondering if anyone knows the reasoning behind this as I believe the panel knows who passed and who has not?Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cathal Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 In our system the panel will not tell you right away. You learn if you have passed on the next training day, because the panel may have specific information to give to your own sensei about your performance, etc. Especially if you did not pass. .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bushido_man96 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 We usually do not find out right away because our results get sent to HQ to be entered. Also, it takes about a week for the belts to come in, so we just wait until the belts come to announce results. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rateh Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 At our dojo we usually do not give the results till the following monday. (testing is done on fridays) There are three reasons for this.1. The testing panel compares notes, and decides if everyone passed or not.2. Certificates can be signed and we make sure we have the correct belts for the students.3. They receive their new rank at the beginning or end of the class, so everyone who wasn't at the test can still witness it.If testing is before a holiday, then we will give the results and ranks out the same night. This means however that we don't have the opportunity to compare notes. Instead we just make sure no one failed anyone. Also we need to make sure we have all the correct belts ahead of time, even for students who do not show up or pass their test. Certificates are handed out the next time class is scheduled, as there is no time to sign them. And no one gets to watch the cerimony except your classmates who also tested, and your parents/siblings who are already there. Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start. - Nido Qubein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagnerk Posted October 6, 2006 Share Posted October 6, 2006 I'm not sure about this association I'm currently with as I haven't tested with them yet, however in the two other associations (Shotokan Karate & Kick-boxing) they told you on the day as the head sensei was always there to ensure high standards. In Shotokan karate the grading were normally 1/2 a day for under 3rd kyu's, about 3/4 of a day for 3rd kyu and above and a full day for shodans & above. If you were going for a kyu grade you would get your belts & certs on the day (at the end), but if you went for a dan grade then you would be told at the end of the day, get your belts in the next class in front of every one and get your cert once a year around Christmas (as that's when there was the joint Christmas and cert dinner).In the kick-boxing association after the grading your where given the cert & the belt.-Ken Tang Soo Do: 3rd Dan '18Shotokan Karate: 2nd Dan '04 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
