Rockschool Electric Guitar Grades - The performances are the benchmark by which the grades are measured and the printed performance repertoire reflects the general standards which players should be able to attain if they are successfully to complete the exam requirements. All the repertoire pieces performed in the exam should be played to the CD backing track provided. The performance characteristics of each grade are printed in the relevant grade books and are reproduced below. The grade descriptions assume competence in the areas described in grades lower down the sequence.

Rockschool's exams are divided into four Zones:

• Entry Zone (yellow): covering Debut and Grade 1 and designed for players who are just starting out, learning the basics of their instrument;
• Player Zone (green): covering Grades 2 and 3 and designed for more advanced beginners who are beginning to explore the demands of both technique and style;
• Performer Zone (red): covering Grades 4 and 5 and designed for players who are competent across a range of techniques and styles;
• Pro Zone (blue): covering Grades 6 and 8 and designed for players wishing to achieve mastery of technique and stylistic appreciation.
