Calligraphy Grading and Skipping: You can skip before Grade 6. For example, you can jump directly from grade one to grade three, provided that your calligraphy level has reached grade three. You can take the calligraphy test level 3 or jump from level 2 to level 4. In principle, adults can't take exams after Grade 6. If their calligraphy level is ok, adults can pass the exam step by step directly from the sixth grade.
