I'm with you - and my biggest issue is that I think if you are not challenged you should be moved up, but that the relative skill levels should still be equivalent within groups.

For example, I don't particularly think I'm ready for the Advanced class, but my skill level is several notches above the rest of the Intermediate class now that the Beginning class is more of "an introduction to hula" than an actual Beginning class. So now, Intermediate is really the Beginning class.

I don't know if there is a way out of this particular situation. I may have to just let it go and move on. *sigh* It was nice hearing it put another way.

I'll be thinking on it.
