I want to test vs. My master tells me when to test

[The Pred]

Oh as far as student B is concerned. As the old saying goes not everyone can teach. So if student B is just a student and has no need of ever opening a school. Then does it really matter pass black belt?

By "pass black belt", I'm assuming that you mean, pass Shodan, and if so, in that regards, I suppose that it doesn't! And it's just me, but, knowing that there's more to learn beyond Shodan, and forget about rank, I surely want to learn more...and more...and more...

The Pred, I don't understand your point. Do you have Shodan teaching in your style?

We can not teach until the rank of Sandan and can not open a Dojo until the rank of Yondan.

Shodan is not considered an instructor rank. Nidan can assist but not teach on their own.

Sensei8, couldn't agree more. Always learning.

No,I was just doing a what if.
