if u have good progress in your studies (maybe exposure to musical knowledge before), then maybe u can skip a few grades and go directly to your level.

there is no requirement for sitting grades 1-4. but u need to have the grade 5 theory to go for grades 6-8 practical examinations.

i skipped grade 1-3 and went directly to grade 4 when i started piano. coz i studied basic organ before that and i was clever (of course) cool2.gif

Im 18 this year (waiting for SPM results)

will it be too late for me to start learning piano?
i do have some basic for theory part cause learned organ till grade 2 before

anyway, can i learn piano at musical schools i.e yamaha, without going for the test to go to a higher grade?
i don't really plan to be a pianist so the certificate is not important to me
just wanna learn cause really interested to the sound of piano

anyway, can i ask piano test and theory test grade 1, will there be all kids ??
feel shame if i were to take grade 1 test with all kids and im the only one who is 18

I think you shouldn't be ashamed lor, there is nothing wrong in starting piano late. As long as you want to learn, I think age isn't a factor =) And yea kids today start music at even younger ages, I swear when I started (I was 8) I was one of the oldest then.. which was kinda weird. But don't worry! It'll be fine! =D

Yah usually music schools encourage you to take the exams, but you don't really have to. It's a personal choice.
