Why was sasuke graduating late?

[roncato]

If Sasuke was considered to be a genius since he was a child, then why did he graduate from the academy at the same time as Naruto who was a failure?
No character bashing please

Well, he wasn't a genius like Itachi. And his "genius" skills appeared after he met Orochimaru.

That or Iruka simply didn't allow him to graduate yet. He had to have the right attitude to become a ninja and that was the same with Naruto. Sasuke was arrogant and didnt cooperate much but he was still a genius. Naruto on the other hand, didnt cooperate nor do good in his studies but after numerous times of failing he finally graduated when he proved his worth by saving the village in a sense when learning the forbidden technique to perform shadow clones. In order to pass and graduate you must become like a true ninja. To do that you have to cooperate because that comes in with teamwork and you have to be able to pass the test except for in Naruto's case. There are two things starting with c:

capability to be able to do things and perform techniques. This is obviously helpful when on the battlefield.

As well as cooperation. Especially good when you are put into a team and are required to use teamwork.

simple really..

The best answer so far.

People cannot help themselves they just want to character bash on Naruto even thought the thread isn't about him...the question is why did Sasu graduate late yet people are here naming reasons why Naruto graduated late lol that sort of **** riding is really pathetic...why do you feel you have to be defensive? Naruto was/is an idiot of course he graduated late but that's no answer as to why Sasuke did...

Or naruto could have entered the academy 3 years earlier. Like he was alone from the beginning so maybe he just joined the academy since he had nothing to do.
Kakashi graduated at age 5 so its not hard to believe Naruto was in the academy at age 4.
