"This exam truly tested the endurance and mental toughness of our stu-
dents!" exclaimed Sensei.  "The exam for brown belt marks a pivotal point
in one's training.  It's difficulty forces a deep reflection into oneself and tests
the student's focus and determination.  It clearly separates the serious from
the uncommitted student, and defines the path each will take in their karate
journey!"
