Passed biggrin.gif The results were very close to what I expected overall. Breakdown:

Bach Allemande 23/30 - so-so, would've hoped for more but apparently not
Mozart Sonata 24/30 - pretty much as expected, I never really felt happy with this piece
Liszt 26/30 - surprised but pleased with this mark
Scales 13/21 - should've done better but I just underperformed on the day, it all went pear-shaped and suchlike
Sight Reading 10/21 - no comment ph34r.gif ph34r.gif ph34r.gif
Aural 13/18 - well, what did you expect? I was just glad I got a jazz piece to comment on.

Overall, pretty much what I expected (and deserved). Not a great pass but one I'm happy with and it feels nice to get it out of the way. Maybe, a while from now, I might go back and try and pick up a better mark but at the moment I'm happy smile.gif And also, I now have the full set of certificates from 1-8 to go on my wall cool.gif

I now have the full set of certificates from 1-8 to go on my wall cool.gif

Congratulations on completing the set! Now how about finding a pianist friend whose sight-reading is at about your level and getting together to help each other along by sight-reading piano duets? There's a HUGE repertoire of interesting duets at all levels. If there isn't a good music library nearby see if you can borrow some from your teacher or other local pianists. Alternatively, try and find a friend who plays an instrument that needs accompanying and try sight-reading accompaniments then working on them. Sadly pianists often miss out on music as a social activity.

Best of luck for the next stage...
