I'm curious as to how your schools hold testing. My school has a level system that we use. We don't wear sashes or what not, but we do have levels for cutoff of advanced classes and such. Also what are your test generally like when you do test? Our levels are :
White Level
Gold Level
Green Level
Blue Level
Red 1 Level
Red 2 Level
Brown 1 Level
Brown 2 Level
Black 1 Level
Black 2 Level
They are generaly sectioned by forms. White is certain forms, then Gold is a few more, ect. Also there is a run and horse stance that increase with each level. At Red2 you begin to "spar" or fight on tests with other advanced students and Sifu. Mostly Sticky hands.
