At your school how many forms are taught at each kup rank?

At my school there are 2 basic forms at 10th kup and 2 more basic forms at 9th kup. for 8th-2nd kup, there is one Taeguek form per kup. At 1st kup there are three, the last Taeguek and the first 2 palgues.

10th Gup: Kibon Hyung 1-3

Well we teach both the Tae Gueks and the Chon-ji forms so we have about three to four poomse per belt rank and we do not do the stripe thing just pure old fashion color belts.

We have one form for each belt till 2nd gup. We learn two for 2nd and first gup. One for probationary BB. Then three to five for dan grades (not shore how many).
 
We use one per belt until 1st gup then it is two. After that it is three per rank as BB's.

1 form per belt rank at the color belt level. The black belt ranks have additional weapon forms.
 
We currently do one long form and at least one short form each gup (two short forms in higher color ranks).
