degree reguirements

[elcajon555]

I was just curious about other schools degree reguirments. Currently in my school with have to do 10 spinning wheels, 10 spinning hooks, 10 spinning crossing kicks per leg. High jump round houses over our heads, step on air spinning hook and crossing, 10 round houses head high with no drop, full slits, 50 pushups, that is all I can think of at the moment, those are the most important. Then there is board breaking using both speed and power and the form, which is kumgang(from first to second). What about you guys??

For third dan I had to do both of the forms for my belt level, one step free spar, then Free spar (full contact) 3-on-1, two rounds. 3 fresh people for the 2nd round.
Then I had to do a board breaking routine of my choosing, and then a speed knife hand break through two red bricks.
