I've been thinking, should belt advancement work the same way grade advancement works in school? It takes thirteen years to get through school, Kindergarten and then grades 1-12. From there you might go to college or you might start a career or whatever. The time t get through school is pretty much set and a student advances one grade per year. Occasionally there might be variations, a student might be slow or might be struggling and might be held back a grade or a student might be really academically talented or a whiz bang and might skip a grade but I would say over ninety percent of the time a student goes up one grade a year and finishes school in thirteen years. Should belt advancement work the same way? Perhaps most students should go up one belt every few months or whatever and it should take a standard X amount of time to make black belt which is pretty much the same for every student the same way graduating from school is pretty much the same amount of time for everybody.
