The USFSA adult levels are Pre-Bronze, Bronze, Silver & Gold. After Gold, the adults move over to the standard track, starting at Intermediate. That's when they start competing at the "masters" level.

It's ok that you didn't know them - I'm still trying to figure out the standard track - in my day it was all figures! I'm Adult Gold, BTW.

Really don't know, we're pretty casual and I haven't tested but my guess is I'm at Bronze level and will be for awhile. :-) Some of my MIF's are harder than Bronze but like I said we're pretty casual, there's just 5 of us in our group.

You also omitted the beginning levels - I think in the USA you call them pre-Preliminary, Preliminary, and pre-Juvenile, don't you? Here, we don't have a separate Adult structure; everybody does the first 6 levels of tests, the first 3 are counted as Bronze and levels 4-6 as Silver. Then the sheep are separated from the goats, and the would-be elite skaters go to Novice, Primary, Junior and ultimately Senior tests, and the rest of us go battling on up to and including Level 10. This applies in both dance and free skating.

I classed myself as Novice, but I wanted to clarify that that's in dance, not singles. For qualifying competitions I would actually be Intermediate, but since I don't have a partner I can't do qualifyings anyway. At local comps I usually skate Novice, although I'm probably going to be skating Junior at least a couple of times this year.

Edited to add, I've passed my Intermediate Moves and Pre-Silver Dance, and will be taking my Rocker and American at the end of April.
