I can't find an answer to my two questions re ABRSM Grade 1 piano exam. I really hope someone more experience can help me here.

  1. I'm not sure if I have to learn all forms of the minor scales required for the exam (a and d-minor) or choose only one which suits me best e.g. harmonic one?

  2. Is it going to be a mistake if I'd decide to repeat a part after the repetition sign in the pieces I play? In the syllabus they advise to ignore the repeat signs although I already learnt with the repetition. Is this going to be a mistake?

For ABRSM, the syllabus lays out these rules quite clearly.

  1. Minor scales in the lower grades may be played harmonic or melodic or natural minor by the candidate's choice (do check carefully as you take higher grades when this changes!)
  2. Pieces are normally played without repeats. The syllabus will say if a given piece on it should be played with repeats, so check the pieces you're playing, but if it says nothing you should leave out the repeats.

The syllabus for any instrument is available from abrsm.org for free.

Good luck!
