Re: undeserved promotion?

Hello,

Just wondering if any of you have witnessed students pass a test when you felt they didn't have enough skills to justify the promotion. Do you think some instructors can be a bit lenient promoting students at times?

Wondering....
I remember in 1994 at a camp that I watched a Shodan test, it was not... Um.. up to par so to say. I saw one of out high ranking instructors lay down and take a nap less than half way through the test.

and the scary part was, he passed!

thank you,

Ben
