CLINIC FOCUS
Attending an official FOC-sanctioned clinic is a prerequisite for attempting the written exam. Once a passing score (90%) has been achieved on the written exam (both the general section and one or more weapon-specific sections), a referee receives a rating of "P" for each weapon passed. Further rating improvements (N1, N2, R1, R2) can be obtained later by being evaluated in a practical tournament setting.
