TEST (Simsa)
There are two categories; grade and degree. Grade testing is conducted at an appropriate gym to which the student belongs.
Degree testing up to third is conducted by a promotion board composed of more than three and less than seven members of the association or federation of their parent country.
Fourth to eighth degree will be tested by the promotion committee of the International Taekwon‑Do Federation. As far as ninth degree is concerned, unanimous consent has to be granted by a special committee which shall consist of 9 members who are holders of either 7th or 8th degree recognized by the International Taekwon‑Do Federation.
The power test is strictly prohibited for children, for it may cause bone or muscle damage.
Note:
As is customary, a qualified instructor may test up to one half of his holding degree; for example, 4th degree may test up to 2nd; 6th degree up to 3rd degree.
