Hi.

I would like to get some opinions on whether I should continue my Grade 6 piano..
I'm going to start my Grade 6 piano soon but I have this thought of not wanting to continue anymore..
Reasons are...I'm already 18..and going to college soon..and perhaps going overseas..so I don't think I'll ever finish Grade 8...
secondly..I only know how to read ''taugeh'' and don't know how to play by ear...
I plan to take up PBE courses cuz i personally think that playing by ear is quite important..
I don't want to be a musician who only knows how to play pieces when I have score sheets...
thirdly...classical pieces are boring...that's why I don't like piano lessons and don't practise what my teacher taught me...cuz what I do is only practising pop pieces..

But..the thing is..my dad thinks that Grade 8 qualification is important and told me that I should continue till Grade 8..

I really don't know what to do now...
Can anyone please advise me on this ?

Thank you.

since you are more than half way there..why not go all the way ?
