Scott,

It's not many but it does happen.

The reverse is a larger fact however. Guys hanging around a class they shouldn't be.

The real point of all this, IMHO, is to make the jump to the next class something to be extremely proud of.

A goal if you will.

It shouldn't be taken lightly and should require a certain amount of skill demonstrated to a panel of judges.

If you want to jump to the next class, prove you've mastered the skills required for your current class.

I'm hoping some guys from countries that do this will chime in and tell us how they do it.
