[madchicken]

Hey, I just got accepted to challenge my level 1 snare...and I might possibly go for level 2, so I was just woundering, what kinds of stuff do I have to know?   Such as, what songs and stuff like, drags?   Your help is much appreciated, thanks alot.

How about you ask your band officer, who will be more than willing to point you in the right direction. Who has the testing stuff. Who's even getting more testing stuff next week...

It may depend if you are doing Military band or Pipes and Drums, as they both have snare, but they have different programs for getting a level, as to the music you play and even the type of sticks you use.

I think 903 BCD's used to have a p&d band.  Don't know if it still survivws though.

Lol yes we had a pipe band last year.  But then we got dis-banded when our band CI left us.  But were back again...obviously we would have a highland band if I was asking for music right?

well, you never know.  It might have been a mil band *shudders* that you were talking about.

A little while back (as in the middle of the training year...which is now done...) I did my playing test for my level two snare drum. My drum major passed me (of course..thank you very much ha ha) but he said I still need to do my theory test, which he "would order right now". Is there actually a theory test, as i have never done a band level test in cadets, and where can i get the theory test booklet, since my DMaj hasn't been successful in gettin it.

All music testing has to be done through your RCSU Music Coord or somebody they've "ok'd" to do testing.  Not to burst your bubble but your drum major probably can't test you, when I was CIC I tested to 3s at CSTC but I couldn't test even basic at the LHQ level.  As for theory test, last I knew about it was they were "going" to set up a writing group to set down some national standards, but I wouldn't count on being able to write that test on your own.  AFAIK nobody in atlantic had ever gotten a theory level outside of a CSTC while I was in.
