CheekyMusician Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 SO I take it a lot of peopole dont' pass the test to be prmoted the first time they take it? Its not that. Its just that my club doesn't test very often (only about twice a year) and we've got 10 Kyu ranks. Smile. It makes people wonder what you've been up to.

G95champ Posted February 23, 2003 Share Posted February 23, 2003 It really don't matter. Differant styles and differant org's have differant orders. In fact some styles that are the same will still be differant. A rule of thumb is basically this. Go from light to dark in color. Red is the one exception. You may see it early or right before black.
