Hi Everyone! First week of the black belt cycle and I'm very excited and going into this confidently. I hope the novelty of the cycle does not wear off quickly. Joining the cycle was a last-minute decision I made Friday night. I was very nervous going to the pre-test on Saturday morning and didn't understand why it was on the first day. On my first cycle the pre-test was a couple of weeks after the cycle started. Here's the funny thing, the part I was most nervous about, the written test, ended up being pretty easy. I only missed one question and scored a 90%. I want to wish everyone good luck for the cycle.
