Drat, I think i just missed the entry for the next exams, i was so busy entering my students for jazz and classical exams i forgot to enter myself for the double bass grade 2 exam having recently started to learn the double bass. Contacted the Board on the 2nd of October i wonder if they will still allow me to enter the Autumn exams even though i missed the deadline by one day? What do you think? how strict are they with deadlines???

Great the Board gave me an extension so i can do the exam after all!

That's good (and a useful thing to know!). Good luck in your exam.

Thanks, i do find the graded exams really useful in that they force me to make an effort to improve my ability.
