You think Naruto is going to go through the Chuunin Exams now? Sakura was also under the strict teaching of Lady Tsunade, so that may have something to do with why she's a Chuunin.

to become a chuunin you have to go through the chuunin exams, y do you think that Shikamaru asked Naruto what he planned on doing for the chuunin exams at the beginning of Shippuden? Sakura went throught the exams too... maybe with Ino and Chouji considering Shikamaru was no longer on their team...

i don't think that the chuunin exams are the only way to become a chuunin.

Seems to be a lot of people that disagree with you. Consider re-thinking this? :)

nope... nobody really knows, but if there was another way to become a chunin why would shikamaru tell naruto he should take the exams to become a chunin?

Someone agree with mine. It makes PERFECT SENSE.

Shikamaru was promoted via skill. Sakura didn't have a team, and it makes more sense she was promoted this way because she gained skill. Also, this may not apply to every person. Like team Kurenai for example or Guy's team. However, Neji and Lee showed alot of power in th exams. Maybe they were promoted the same way. To support Neji, remember during the finals, they said you didn't have to win to become a chunin? This doesn't effect Sakura, but it kinda supports.

I think she was promoted via skill. Why Naruto hasn't yet, I don't know. It doesn't matter. He'd decline it anyways.

You make an excellent point! Oh on top of that.. Neji is a Jounin, not a Chuunin. LOL xd

True, but I meant maybe he was promoted to Jounin in the same way. Or he was a Chunin beforehand, for like 5 minutes?

You got me XD I forgot! Ah well, Neji's a beast nonetheless.

There are actually Jounin Exams, but we haven't seen them as of yet. I'd wager it was given to Neji due to his skill, his eyes, and his discipline as a Shinobi. He's completely capable of leading a team himself at this point.

then y even have the exams? and wouldn't naruto have gotten the title of chuunin yet? i believe it says in the manga that they joined up with different teams to take the exams until they were given the title of chuunin...

Probably that's what happenned. for example : Shikamari was promoted. Shakura might have neen just included in his team with ino and cleared the exams with ino etc. or any other combination. After all Not all members are selected as chunin at the same time. So there will always be some way and different combinations.

Probably that's what happenned. they must mean the team as which they appear in the exam. For example : Shikamaru was promoted. Shakura might have neen just included in his team with ino and cleared the exams with ino etc. or any other such combination. After all not all members are selected as chunin at the same time. So there will always be some way and different combinations.

Yeah I guess there must be other ways to become a chuunin. Thanks for the replies anyway.

You're very welcome. Oh, and I'm sure they're are. In times of war they do just promote certain Shinobi who prove themselves to be worthy of promotion. Think about How Kakashi got to be where he is.
