Should I quit piano?

  Keeping it as a hobby is a good idea. I quit a while ago, but I still have all that musical knowledge. And trust me, it HELPS in life.

  Maybe take a break for half a year and see if you want to continue from there if that is the case.

  I talked to my teacher about it, and decided to wait until the score sheet gets scanned and uploaded...
  
  If I get an average of 70 or above in every section then I can go on to ARCT... so I wouldn't need to take any extra exams...
  
  But still... even though the practice pressure would be much less because I just finished the exam, it's still stressful...
  
  My teacher's really nice, though, she kind of swayed me.

  Or you could quit. Or just do piano as more of a hobby than being forced to be educated about it.

  Forget about grading. Sometimes, You just need to play stuff you enjoy yourself. Why not start uploading videos of yourself playing piano? You can be the first to re-arrange some Mabinogi songs and play them.
  
  I personally love one piano player in japan called Marasy. He does a lot of touhou, beatmania and hatsune Miku songs. He's even released a CD for Comi-ket. You should look at him.
  
  Try to just take piano into another light. Although playing at competitions and seeing what your leveled at can be fun, sometimes just playing a song for a screaming fan can also be fun.
  
  Here's a video of Marasy, playing the ever so famous Bad Apple.
