The Royal exam is graded from 1 to 8 for both practical & theory. Sure
it is 'easy' enough in term of generalization depending on which grade
is in mind. But in general, this kind of exam is good for tracking
down student's progress, giving purposes in music/guitar learning,
building up their personal confidence, etc.
Otherwise, students will just play play play feeling better themselves
because they had never heard any good critics from good ears.

I take the ABRSM exams in the US (Princeton, NJ). I'm taking Theory
Grade 1 this June and Classical Guitar Grade 3 in November.

As you can see from David's reply, the main reason many people teach
CG in America is to assuage their egos and underdeveloped
personalities, with passing consideration of serving the higher art of
music and the instrument of Classical Guitar.

Yeah, quit that, Ed. daveA
