con job	Been playing about six years, I play on a very regular basis but stopped doing grades years ago, although I think I'd be a grade 7/8 standard. (Not sure about other countries, 8 is maximum over here, then diplomas and crap)	Been playing about six years, I play on a very regular basis but stopped doing grades years ago, although I think I'd be a grade 7/8 standard.

trash_pixie	I've been playing for 6 years, played first clarinet in our school's concert band. When we had one, anyway. Our Music department has completely gone down the drain. I never did the exams, but I've been doing grade six pieces and scales for a while. Haven't had a tutor for about a year sadly.

20cdndollars	I'm not that good.... I'm probably around grade 2 or 3, Havent taken any tests, But I have a lot of fun sucking. I've been playing for about 3 years, but just started taking it seriously this year. And I havent been playing lately, rocking out on the tuba for the past couple of weeks.	I'm not that good....
