So he has been held back two years then.... So why is he the same age as his "graduating class"? Maybe the exams are not a once a year thing? I'm not 100% sure on that though. (Take HunterxHunter's Hunter exams or whatever, taken once every 6 months.)

THAT is an answer I like. I actually quite fond of it. However I do like to ask "Why" ;) But that does beg the question, Why is he classed with Sakura and Sauske? I thought Naruto was Younger than them (too lazy to look it up). I get the every 6 months thing, but the age difference. They made no note of Sauske or Sakura failing before. They didn't seem the type. I just like finding little things like this and picking at em ^^
